As far as I am aware you can, technically if you have Pirate ID and full freelancer rep you will be green to your targets. I think there is some debate as to whether this is ok or not. I think it is underhanded, but then that piracy.

For example, a freelancer IFF pirate will see a DSE trader as red (the pirate's rep with DSE) despite the fact that the DSE trader might be seeing the pirate as green/white (depends on whether the trader is green/white to freelancers).
The color of the IFF on your screen has absolutely no bearing or relation to the color another person you're interacting with might be seeing of your IFF
yeah, so this.
Thanks to Leppy for helping me put what i meant the right way.

so if they are neutral to FLs, you will show as white.
If they are friendly to FLs, you will show as green.
TL;DR:
ID sets how you see others.
IFF is how others see you.
Um maybe I'm just reading this wrong, but I think you have it kind of backwards there.
