Can your OS support it?  Generally yes, but specifics depend on your OS.
Looks like you might be talking about Solaris, in which case yes, but you
probably already knew that.

Can FW-1 support it?  Yes, but you have to be careful about defining your
anti-spoofing.  Create a group containing all of the subnets that you want
to allow on the physical interface (ie the primary subnet plus all subnets
off of sub-interfaces), then define anti-spoofing for that physical
interface using "Others" and specifying the group you created.

Always name the interfaces in the firewall object to exactly match the
physical interface names as reported by the OS.  Do not create interfaces on
the firewall object for the virtual interface.  Do not rename the interfaces
in the firewall object.  Saves you headaches later.

See the FW-1 documentation, FAQ titled "Do Aliased (or Virutal) Interfaces
Pose a Security Risk?".  In v4.0, this is on page AA-350.  For other
versions, look up 'virtual interfaces' in the index.
