You can do it on pfSense 2.1 with OpenVPN - but only on 2.1.

On 2.1, when you assign an OpenVPN interface and you add a firewall rule
to its tab, those rules get reply-to added to send traffic back to the
OpenVPN connection's gateway.

That reply-to function is required for the traffic to return via the
same path it entered.

The same *might* work on 2.0 with GIF or GRE, assigned, with a gateway
added, for similar reasons. But if you want to carry it across a VPN,
OpenVPN is your best bet.

Now that I think of it, IPsec with a P2 of <public subnet> to 0.0.0.0/0
might work, but I wouldn't hold my breath on that one. Might be worth a
try though.
