More or less- here's what you can do:
Use "swfdump -u file.swf" to look for lines like

[007]        61 DEFINEBUTTON defines id 0016
                uses IDs: <id1>,<id2>,<id3>,<id4>

Then run "swfdump -b file.swf" to look up the respective ids <id1>:

[020]        35 DEFINESHAPE3 defines id <id1>
                 bbox [0.00, 100.00, 100.00, 200.00]

This will give you the hyperlink coordinates (boxes) for each
for the links.
Lines like

[001]         0 SHOWFRAME 2 (00:00:03,994)

will be seperating the pages.
