If it works, why change it?
But if you want you can do something like

$outfile = `ufsdump 0uf /dev/rmt/0n  /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0` 

which should capture the output into a scalar string and  you can just print
or capture the output in a list context 
@outfile = `ufsdump 0uf /dev/rmt/0n  /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0` 
and write some code to print to a file
