No .. not in the literal sense.

What you do in this case is create an equal weighted preference for each 
of the two routes, along with tests to ensure each link is up and modify 
your pf rules accordingly.

example1 (this is for netfilter) :

example2 (freebsd specific) :

As others have mentioned, this is a question for the various FreeBSD 
mailing lists ..
