Hi, I've got a linux firewall with iptables that i use for routing. Is it possible to do this with pfsense?

pfSense is not Linux based. It has FreeBSD as basis.
pfSense does not use ipTables but pf (packet filter).
Thus the name ;)What exactly is your questions?
What are you trying to do? -
I have to use this feature where I can find?
FORWARD - The default chains is used when packets send through another interface. Usually used when you setup Linux as router. For example, eth0 connected to ADSL/Cable modem and eth1 is connected to local LAN. Use FORWARD chain to send and receive traffic from LAN to the Internet.

In pfSense you have to think a bit different.
Rules are always applied on the interface on which traffic arrives.
So if you want to have a rule to apply to traffic going from LAN to WAN you put the rule on the LAN-tab.
If you want a rule to apply to traffic from WAN to LAN, then you put the rule on the WAN-tab.
etc.
