Only if you tell it to replace the boot manager (you do get the option...)
There are some bits in the documentation about how to add FreeBSD to the
NT loader menu. It wasn't hard as I recall (I installed 3.2R after I'd
installed NT 4). Until you do this, you'll need to use fdisk to set the
bootable flag every time you want to change OS.
