Yes, but you need to think in terms of creating content elements that are defined by external data and content such as xml files, a database, and images that get loaded... and possibly creating a user interface for the client to make editing easy (other you need to train them how to edit the data/content elements).

Thank you for your reply! This takes un excellent knowledge of xml and ufortunately, i'm not that good in xml. I was considering the online page editor add-on.  Any  other ideas on tools i could use?

thanks

I said "such as" for a reason.  There are various forms that data resources can take, such as simple name=value text files, but if you are shy of learning xml then you are likely shy of other file forms as well.

Another way would be to have the client purchase Flash and then they can edit the Flash source file themselves.

Unfortunately, to do what you want, either you or the client has to learn/understand the tools that are involved.
