No. It's:this.addScript("ScriptName", "ScriptCode");

There is a trick you can use, but I don't really recommend it unless you're desperate. Document-level JavaScripts are loaded by alphabetical order when the document is opened, so if you add a new document-level JavaScript that has a name that would load after the one that contains the function you want to remove, you can use the doc.addScript method to add a function that has the same name. The one that is loaded last will be the one that's used when it's subsequently called. The problem is you can't count on this alphabetical loading, though it's always been that way with Acrobat/Reader since JavaScript was introduced in version 3.
