I have done something along those lines using the StageToCast XObject. The problem is that all those nice new cast members (I made a few) are all sitting in RAM, therefore you need to save them to disk to free up some RAM. I did this by arbitrarily saving the movie when less than 30k of RAM is free...

if the freeBytes < 30 * 1024 then
  saveMovie
  unload
end if
