It actually says that's an example only ;)

Short answer: no. Give up now and reinstall now that you know what you need.

Long answer: Yes, the FAQ which you sound like you've read does imply
that this is possible. However, this is pretty low-level stuff so it's
really tricky. All the filesystems right now are packed together (or
probably are at least; you can check your disklabel to see, with some
graphing paper and patience, exactly where they are positioned). If
you've left unused space at the end, and /var is the lastmost
partition, it will be possible to grow it. See growfs(8) and read it
very carefully.

But you would probably be better off doing a clean install.

Good luck,
