I'm not aware of any GIF encoders written in Actionscript. If you absolutely need to use GIF (and nobody has yet written an encoder in AS), I only see 3 options:
1) Get the GIF spec and write the encoder from scratch. 2) Find some open source encoder in other language (like Java) and port it to Actionscript. 3) As it was already suggested, use the PNGEncoder in as3corelib, send the encoded image to the server and have the server re-encode it to GIF. In php, using the GD library, re-encoding should be only a couple of lines. 1) is the hardest, and it's probably not worth the hassle. 2) is close to 1) in many ways. 3) is the most reasonable option, I think. Unless you absolutely need to do everything client side.
