It depends on your definition of freedom. We can have desires without being a slave to them.

You can satisfy desires? Or do you replace one with another?

Your desires can be controlling you, unless you understand its power, you are enslaved by them.

Having a desire implies expecting an outcome. That can be an attachment, which is binding, not free

You can be consumed by your desires. but if balanced with sharing they can transcend into joy

The only way desires can help you to be free is if you learn to not be a slave to them

Not on a spiritual level, but we are human, seeking is not having, having might be not seeking

It gives the illusion of freedom in that moment. It is not true freedom.

free is not connected to desires. Desires have expectations, wants, needs. Freedom has no rules.
