It is probably possible, but not without some work.
svgalib is linux dependent in a few areas:

direct hardware access: accessing io ports and pci / vga memory. OpenBSD
probably provides for this as well, bu it might be different from
linux. You'll have to fix that.

Console control: capturing console switch requests.

keyboard mode: changing keyboard to raw mode.
