IEEE.802.1X supports the authentication of clients while establishing a connection to the network before the client is assigned as IP address via DHCP ( Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Among other things. i am using CoovaChilli with FR and i need to authenticate users before ip address & VLAN is assigned. i wish to check if Freeradius EAP would work this way. 

Yes.

If you enable WPA/2-Enterprise it'll work exactly like that.
