Is it possible to try out the lxqt package without altering the
existing ports installed using make in the ports tree?
I think it would be difficult to do it without modifying the host environment.
You probably also need the x11-servers/xorg-nestserver package.
The following command will launch the interactive shell of jail, which has
everything you need for now.
poudriere bulk -j main -i x11-wm/lxqt x11-servers/xorg-nestserver x11/xterm
After this, you have to make nestserver connect to the host Xorg via ssh or
something, but the explanation of that is tedious :)
I''d suggest, after building the package set with poudriere, to use some
virtualization solution (bhive, virtualbox, or emulation like qemu if a
different architecture is required (arm for example)) to test the
packages without interfering with the host system installation.
Vagrant can also be helpful in simplifying repetitive tasks with VMs.
