Hi,
You will probably need a port forwarding from the router at the remote side to perform NAT from the public IP to the Pfsense behind that router. It would not be possible to form IPSec tunnel if FortiGate does not have route and connectivity towards the remote device. The remote gateway is required to be reachable from FortiGate before IPSec tunnel can be formed.

Dear @kcheng I did it successfully but just select the LAN port on pfsense side like we select the WAN interface normally but in this case was different (server-client scenario)
