I think so. Well, it must be possible so that IBM and Liferay are able to make portlets that use Laszlo, hence Flash in them. Here is the screenshot of a HelloWorld Laszlo portlet running in Liferay Portal:

Beyond just the portlets themselves, Laszlo could even be used to build the actual portal interface also. This could be a second additional more powerful interface as an alternative to the HTML-based interface. Here is a Laszlo demo that demonstrate what a Laszlo-based portal might look like:

Today Lazslo emits SWF but I hope in the future this will evolve towards SVG. I think there is already some noise about that.
