Yes. Rule (4H2) specifically states that they may use their phasers, and gives no restrictions on that use.
The only two limitations given on the combat aspects of a suicide freighter is that 1) it must move as a seeking weapon and 2) its tractor may only be used in the Defensive Fire Phase. _________________

Okay, this question had to come...
Can an armed freighter be used as a suicide freighter? |

No.
Rule (4H1) starts by saying "Standard freighters are converted into suicide freighters ..." But even aside that, no. Considering what you are doing with the freighter, it would be a total waste to use an armed freighter (or Q-ship) for that purpose.
Only standard freighters may be used. _________________
