Unfortunately as Tom said things just don't work that way.

In Java, this is possible by using a static variable in the super class.
  However, while the theory maybe the same in ActionScript, I have no
idea how to do it.

package fubar;

public class SharedValues
{
     public static void main( String[] args )
     {
         Base1 b1 = new Base1();
         b1.setMessage( "The message" );
         Base2 b2 = new Base2();
         System.out.println( b2.getMessage() );
     }
}

class Super
{
     protected static String message;

     public void setMessage( String message )
     {
         this.message = message;
     }

     public String getMessage()
     {
         return message;
     }

}
class Base1 extends Super
{
}

class Base2 extends Super
{
}
