Yes, the npm installer creates a flexjs folder which you can use from an IDE. I've tested it with FDT and it works fine. Other IDEs should work fine as well.
It also registers mxmlc, asjsc, etc. so you can directly use it from the commandline. This is just another way to install flexjs without using the Installer or ant or maven.
