There was a native Docker port for FreeBSD, but it's very old and very unmaintained.
In theory, someone could create a Docker compatible engine using zfs, jails and virtual network adapters. FreeBSD can run Linux/ELF binaries (which is what the old Docker port did).
I've always felt like Docker for Mac/Windows was always a hack. Even the newer versions don't run natively, they just use the standard Win/Mac hypervisor API. On Win/Mac, you still have to VPN into your container network. On Linux, you can communication with containers directly via IP.
