Short answer, no, you cannot do an actual ping from Flash since it lacks the ability to send ICMP packets. However, I have to ask, what is your reasoning for it’s usage?
The only way to do it (which isn’t really a ping) would be to try to load something extremely small from the server, or have a way for the server to do a callback using a service of sorts. All of this would of course be through HTTP.
