Sadly no you can't. The only video types you can load are .FLV (Flash Video). Other than that you cannot load external videos into flash.

What you can do, though, is make an .swf that's pretty much the same thing as your .mov by following this handy tut:

Save the swf as whatever you want and then load the swf-ified mov into your empty movieclip.

Peace.
