Ahmed,
On the source object you can change the flowitem class to "Truck". This is a taskexecuter type flowitem that you can use to travel on networks. You can then use a different shape that does not include the trailer if you want to have it pick that up later. If by "container" you mean a shipping container then you can use a shape that has an empty container trailer.

i am using flexsim CT ,, and i wonder if i can load container from a yard to trucks that is generated from a source without using the software GatePlanner ?
No. Use the GatePlanner if you want trucks to arrive to load containers from the Yard.
To my knowledge, gate planner can not be to specify the arrival disribution , interarrival time or set a schedule for arriving trucks
