Potentially that sort of thing might be possible, when you consider that
some Flash videos are just a container for playing an ordinary video
file within the page.  e.g. A MPEG player.

However, you have to consider that a lot of Flash usage on the web is
designed to make it next to impossible to do anything other than stream
the video from their website, to retain their control over their data.
I could only foresee limited potential for this.  As soon as publishers
decide to change their techniques, again, to protect their data, you'd
probably have to change playback hardware.
