I'm not sure exactly what you're asking.  If the problem is to add a
second address on the same subnet that the first address of the interface
is on, use a netmask of 255.255.255.255 - that works on FreeBSD, and so
I suspect it will work on the Nokia.

If instead you want to transparently bridge the external subnet to an
internal interface, someone else will have to answer for fw1.
Why is it that you need to do that?
