No. The rc.conf and rc.conf.local files contain nothing but environment variables.

The *_flags variables are only for built-in daemons -- and are used, by name, in the /etc/rc shell script. Spend a few minutes reading that script and you will see how the various *_flags variables are utilized.

the pkg_scripts variable is for the admin to name specific third party scripts, installed by pkg_add in /etc/rc.d, that he or she wants to have executed by the /etc/rc shell script at boot time.
