As @blackout24 stated, you can try using Wine. There's no guarantee it will work, and sometimes wine will require a few tweaks for the software you want to run.
There, under the AppDB you can find the software you would like to run, and see if anybody else has had any problems with it. If they did, perhaps they fixed it with some sort of tweak that they made.
A good chunk of Windows .exe's are 32-bit, so make sure you have the 32-bit compatibility stuff installed on your FreeBSD system.
As a follow up, may I ask what software this .exe is that you intend to run? If it's for a server, the developers may have created an equivalent for UNIX, and there's always a chance that there's a open source and/or free equivalent.
If it's a DOS .exe file you should be able to run it in DosBox. Not sure if there's a FreeBSD package for it or not, but you should be able to download and compile from source.
