Sure, but they should both be indexed as a single entity according to Google and not two as shown in your image. I've been watching this cycle for months and unless something has changed since my research was published, in a few days you can expect to see only the Flash file indexed.
IE http://www.google.com/search?q=deep+impact+amy+walsh&pws=0&hl=en&num=10 I see problems with this because users without Flash enabled can access Flash files in SERPs. Does that make sense? They were indexed as one (X)HTML prior to Google's support for SWFObject being introduced but since then only the Flash and or both have been indexed in SERPs but never the parent URL alone. As for the example, I've seen this in a number of other cases and sites with alternative (X)HTML as well but for obvious reasons can't publish those examples. The example here is Google's example from Google Webmaster Central Blog. While it may not be the best for this discussion it seems fairly accurate of other sites I'm tracking.
