If my goal were to boot FreeDOS in bhyve, would that be ever possible?

You should always be able to boot a vm that uses
and boots with the non CSM uefi firmware with the
CSM version of the firmware, failures may start
to show up if your booting something that is
either purely legacy, or efi aware but falls
back to csm because it didnt like something.

The older ED2K uefi that we are using and
some of the hatchetry that was used to craft
its CSM are in a poor state and could use
some love.

Why would you want to boot Arch Linux with CSM? It should be possible
to boot it either with grub2-bhyve or with UEFI.

testing. the VM itself doesn't exist anymore and only gets spun up if I have to 
test CSM.

Dear Colleagues,

Has anyone been able to boot *anything* with uefi="csm"?

Can you please share at least one success story?
