If you're thinking DHCP or BOOTP, à la Cisco "helper-address", then you would 
want to use a DHCP Relay Agent, which pfSense does support.
Otherwise, I'm not aware of any way to do what you're describing.  I can't even 
think of a way to do it in OpenBSD-current pf(4).
TCP is fairly easy to NAT, but AFAIK all UDP NAT functions have to be hardcover.
The other common case for what you describe is 
Bonjour/Rendezvous/zeroconf/mDNS.  I don't think pfSense supports proxying that 
traffic... that's currently a bleeding-edge feature in some commercial WLAN 
controllers, and will cost you a noticeable amount of cash.
The thing is, what you describe pretty much has to be handled by an 
application, not just firewall rules... actually, if it's mDNS you're concerned 
about, the Avahi package *might* do what you want, I'm not sure.
