In general, FreeSurfer does not care what orientation your images are in as long as the geometry in the header file is correct. If you re-oriented them for SPM and you are confident that the geometry info is still correct (eg, no left-right flips) and you did not change the scale of the images (ie, no stretching or compression to get into talairach space), then you should be able to run FS on them without problem. For FSFAST, there is no need to reorient.
