Yes, but you'll have to check.  Some ports (not the X11 ones) can't be
packaged due to licensing restrictions.  You can get a good idea of the
state of the current build errors for packages from pointyhat on
http://pointyhat.freebsd.org/errorlogs/i386-6-latest/; to find out the
package state of any port, use portsmon at (e.g.)
http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portoverview.py?category=x11&portname=xorg .

Both the pointyhat index pages and the portsmon summaries contain a great
deal of information, but you have to do a little bit of research.
