Not quite. The desktop-specific portion of PC-BSD and TrueOS of earlier this year can now be found at Project Trident. TrueOS is built on FreeBSD, adding in OpenRC, LibreSSL, and the rest; and Project Trident is built on TrueOS. Roughly.
It's been ~10 years since I used PC-BSD, but it was certainly a nice distro.
