You can filter XML with arbitrary boolean functions, so the answer is definitely yes.
See http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/13_Working_with_XML_08.html#131880 One of the examples there shows XML stored in var x with a list of <employee id="23"/> type elements, and you can use this syntax to get an XMLList of employees with id attributes over 300: x.employee.(@id > 300) Similarly, if you had a birthdate field stored as milliseconds since 1970 you could filter on that like so: x.employee.(new Date(@birthdate).getFullYear() == 2000) to return a list of employees who were born in the year 2000.
