Depends. I have moved disks that had custom kernels between and they worked fine. As long as you have the appropriate device drivers it usually works fine. Of course they have to use the same basic architecture.

Rather than copy the disk itself, I would set up the new system, install FreeBSD and make sure that works. Then I'd copy over the config files, followed by use of rsync to move the rest of the stuff over. It works pretty well.
