No.

Actionscript is pretty much Flash's integral version of javascript, it runs within an SWF file and isn't processed by browsers directly, a Flash plug-in is needed to see the Flash file which could contain Actionscript code.

Mobile browsers can't see Flash anymore (mobile Flash plug-in development ended in 2012) and the majority of desktop machines (something close to 60%) don't have functional Flash plug-ins installed.

Flash is essentially a dead technology when it comes to the internet.

If you do not not very much about html and css, then moving from action script to a javascript framework may be an easier option for you, try -

Dreamweaver CC does not support Action Script. 

Dreamweaver supports HTML, CSS, LESS, SCSS, SASS, JavaScript/jQuery, JSON, PHP, XML & SVG code.

As Jon said, Flash is a dead web technology.  Some browsers are blocking Flash by default.  Google Ads stopped accepting Flash ads in Jan this year.   Web Animation is mainly produced in HTML5 & CSS3 now.
