It certainly is. One thing that will matter is whether or not all the
images are the same size. Another thing that will matter is if you have
all the images in advance or are importing them on the fly.
If importing, use 'importFileInto' to get the image into a castmember. If
the placeholder castmember is on stage, then it should update automatically.
If not importing, and you have the sprite already on stage with the
placeholder, use 'set the member of sprite' to set it to whatever new
castmember you want. If images are different sizes, you'll also need 'set
the rect of sprite' to change its dimensions.
