Yes. Someone would have to create a tarball of the CVS. Perhaps this is 
little use as a port particularly since Digium have been releasing 
Asterisk roughly once a month for the last few months. So the release 
version is never that far behind.

If you want cvs, you could always try:

# cd /usr/ports/net/asterisk
# make extract
use cvsup to update the contents of /usr/ports/net/asterisk/work
# make patch
# make
# make install

I haven't tried the above myself, since I'm still trying to solve my 
own set of issues with the stable release.
