It should work (please carefully read their legalese), see

http://wiki.gfoss.it/index.php/Portale_Cartografico_Nazionale_-_PCN

For example:
 r.in.wms mapserver="http://wms.pcn.minambiente.it/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms_ogc/service/ortofoto_colore_06_f32.map"
\
 out=min_amb_candaten_ortofoto_colore_06_candaten
layers=ortofoto_colore_06 format=png srs=EPSG:32632 -c
