Yes it is. Greensock built an as2 class to do just that thing and then
I rebuilt it in as3. Basically it works out the location of certain
words and then creates a box around it. You can create whatever you
want really as all it is doing is getting the x,y,width and height you
need for the location of the word.
Check his blog entry for the as2 version http://blog.greensock.com/textmetrics/

Hello List,
Is there something like a "hover" event for links in HTML
textfields? For
example, imagine an HTML textfield which displays the poem
Jabberwocky. If
the user hovers over any of Lewis Carroll's nonsense words, a
definition
appears in something like a tool-tip. Is such a thing possible?
Cheers,
CB.
