var myAssocArray:Object = {fname:"John", lname:"Public"};
trace(myAssocArray.fname);     // John
trace(myAssocArray["lname"]);  // Public

Have you tried to do it the same way yet?  It is not clear from your code what you have supporting it, but Objects can still be used in AS3 as well as Arrays, so what you currently use might be a cut and paste from AS2 to AS3.

What you show has errors even for AS2.  The most significant one being that your buttons are not being named to give you what your code is after.  Tr the following and rename your buttons to fit the intentions of the code...

var gameDetails:Object = new Object();
gameDetails.player = new Array(new Object());

betSpot_0.mouseChildren = true;
betSpot_0.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onBtnClick);

function onBtnClick(e:MouseEvent){
    var btn = e.currentTarget.name;
    var spot = String(btn).split("_")[0];
    var spotId =String(btn).split("_")[1];
    gameDetails.player[spotId].betSpot = spot;
    gameDetails.player[spotId].betSpotId = spotId;
}

edit:  after rethinking what I offered, I believe it is also off the mark, but I also think there is likely a much simpler data structure you can use for whatever purpose this data is going to serve.  If you can explain what the data needs to provide, it might be possible to help you define a simpler structure.  A bit of what you showed originally, an array of objects, would seem much more suitable.
