If you mean "like that" as in the thickness of the stick figure, then no. Flash MX 2004's line tool only goes up to 10 for it's line thickness.

It's called using the "line tool".

omg... I KNOW THE LINE TOOL DOES THAT! im wondering if you can make the lines ONCE and then animate them without redoing the lines every frame

There is but it looks awful and its not worth it. You can group each limb and then use the free form tool to animate. I makes it look like shit and requires no more skill than pivot. Stick to redrawing frame by frame.
