It is possible to do rudamentary pivoting using Metasploit, however it
lacks the easy point and click interface of Impact. Check out the
portfwd command in the Meterpreter network module for redirecting
ports.
http://www.metasploit.com/projects/Framework/docs/meterpreter.pdf
By the way, according to
http://cansecwest.com/core05/core05_metasploit.pdf more robust
pivoting is planned for Metasploit 3.0.
