Not exactly right...
The problem is that what you're wanting to do is execute an assignment
statement. You cannot have *statements* outside of class methods.
What you can do is have *initializers* as part of *declarations*. So, you
can do this:
public class MyClass
{
public var myVar:String = "some text";
public var myOtherVar:Singleton = Singleton.getInstance();
}
You have to make the assignment at the point where you declare the variable
(so it actually becomes what is called an "initializer").
The initialization statement will be executed as part of the constructor's
prologue (immediately before you constructor code is called), i.e. when you
call "new MyClass();".

I re-read your question and the answer is no you can not.
The reason is becuase Flex is event driven.
What you can do is add to the Application tag flag of:
creationComplete="init()"
and use inside the class:
public function init():void{
pageRO = new RemoteObject();
pageService = PageService.getInstance();
}
