It sounds like your urls are not what you think they are. If you are using relative pathing in an AIR application, it might try to load everything from the local box. Can you probably fire up Charles and proxy all the requests that AIR is making. You should see the requests for your modules going out to the server. But the "app:/" suggests to be that you are not going to the server; instead it is a local request.
You may need to hard-code (in source code or in an xml config) the location of the modules you load so that you get a full non-relative url. The other think you can look into is using the url of the swf you are loading (look at its loaderInfo prop) to determine where the swf came from, and then use that to create a URL for the module. BTW, I assume that in the above post, the term module is referring to <mx:Module/>.
