FreeBSD is a Operating System, Windows 98 is a Operating System.
Unless you take special measures to "Dual Boot", you will end up with
only FreeBSD after you are done.

You should be aware that FreeBSD and Windows 98 use different
filesystems, so when you go to Install FreeBSD on your system it will
be looking to repartition your hard disk. You should take care to
backup your important data prior to installing FreeBSD.
