It might be possible with Wine, but you would need a FAT partition, so 
that would definitely be the long way round - you might as well install 
Win9x in the FAT partition and run WordPerfect on DOS directly.  FreeBSD 
has several good free word processing programs of its own that you may 
want to look at - see <URL: http://www.freebsd.org/ports/editors.html>.
