Im not sure why you would want to, for a few reasons.
First off, the free version of 3Delight Standalone is core limited, so fast renders are out of the question.
Next biggest hurdle are the texture setups. Poser Firefly shaders and Renderman compliant ones are completely different shader setups. Yes Poser will export a scene to RIB, but it doesn't convert the texture setups to Renderman. Some of the things you can do in Firefly with shaders, can't be done in Renderman anywhere near close to the same way.
Your also going to be stuck with static scenes, or do frame by frame exports as well. A lot (most) of the Poser rigging doesn't work in RIB format.
Can Poser scenes be set up to render in 3delight?
Yes they can, but it is a lot of work and far faster to just open the scene in Daz Studio and render it from there. It is the same render engine core.
3Delight is capable of doing very nice renders no matter what version of it you use. But only if you know how to set it all up. There may be a standalone version of Hypershade (Part of Maya) floating around, or something similar. Hypershade is a program to set up Renderman Shaders without doing it manually in a text editor.
Some things are easy to explain, other things are not........ <- Store -> <-Freebies->
