Yes. See the FreeBSD developer handbook.
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/
Section 11.7 in particular.

I do this on a regular basis:
gdb -k kernel.debug vmcore.9
follow this chain to get the address of my module
*linker_files.tqh_first.link.tqe_next.link.tqe_next
objdump --headers /usr/arla/bin/nnpfs.ko | grep text
to see the relocation address.
add address and relocation address
add-symbol-file /usr/arla/bin/nnpfs.ko sum-of-addresses
