No.
Not the twsi i2c bus driver but my driver for i2c capable device 
(bh1750fvi ic).
When I load my driver from /boot/loader.conf it is impossible to write 
or to read from the ic at attach().
I do not checked if my driver loaded this manner can to exchange the 
data with the ic after the boot process is over (I belive it does)

When the driver is loading at boottime I need to use config_intrhook() 
to check if my ic is connected by sending data to it.
Then I decide continue (or stop) further initialization.
I just had no idea before that there is any difference when and how I 
load the kernel driver.

I got an answer to my question.
Thanks.
