Hi. Would it be possible to create an ad-hoc multiplayer connection (close range) between two or several phones in a flash application?

A: 

Flash won't let you communicate directly to another machine. You need a server to handle communications between clients.

A: 

Check http://www.gskinner.com/blog/archives/2010/06/androideroids.html out. It's a multiplayer flash-app between several phones on Android. I'm not sure about the implementation but it looks like you still need a host like Byron stated.
