No, RAIDframe only provides RAID functionality, not logical volume

NetBSD-current provides LVM support via the dm(4) kernel module and
the Linux LVM tools. You can combine LVM with RAIDframe by e.g.
using a RAID 1 volume as the storage pool for LVM.

I'm afraid you will have to use backup and restore.
