Best Wishes on this, and if it works out well post back with info on what you did to make it work!

TOR is not a VPN.
You would have to load up and configure a FreeBSD TOR client and then setup pfSense to send all traffic via that. I think it would almost certainly require some command line tinkering. Search the forum I seem to remember this being asked before.
TOR is often very slow compared to a straight connection are you sure you want all traffic using it?
