No, IDEA doesn't have that integration at the moment. Since Adobe built Blaze, that's one of the few places their tooling is better. That said, you may be able to use AppPuncher by Midnight Coders to get that piece of functionality. It'll only run a half hour at full functionality unless you license it, but a half hour has always been enough time for me to figure out what's going on in my AMF packets and fix it.
While you lose that piece, you gain some other tooling that, to me, has far more value. IDEA's inspections save me a lot of wasted compilation, given how slow the Flex compilers are. The refactoring support in IDEA for Flex is almost the same as Java, which is substantially more complete than the very limited set of refactorings FlexBuilder supports. FlashBuilder 4 finally grew the ability to run FlexUnit tests directly from the IDE, but IDEA also has that. Oh, and IDEA can compile Flex projects in parallel, if they don't depend on each other, since the Flex compilers are single-threaded. You can get a 30 day free trial of IDEA. Might be worth trying. When I first joined this team, I was the only person using IDEA. Now, over half the team is using it. Good luck!
