Yes you'll need xl2tpd and pppd(8) for ipsec/l2tp client.
Be warned, it doesn't work particularly well.

If the other side is under your control, use pretty much anything else
instead.

Plain IKEv1 (isakmpd/ipsec.conf), IKEv2 (iked/iked.conf), OpenVPN, or
openconnect (with ocserv or cisco anyconnect on the server side) - all
will work more reliably and be easier to configure than L2TP+IPsec
client on OpenBSD.
