Short answer: No. Long answer: Client file system access is limited by the security sandbox, both at the browser and Flash Player level.
You can achieve file upload capability using a custom HTML wrapper containing custom javascript. Here's one link, google will find more. http://www.flexauthority.com/articlesArchive/fileUpload.cfm. You can achieve local file access using a C# program with javascript and Flex. Davis, I think, posted a solution, but I haven't found it yet.
