Not easiely. The binary nature of a stack makes this incredibly difficult. It 
is possible to write a little plugin that exports all scripts to plain text 
and, to a certain extend it is possible to export a stack to XML and recreate 
it from that. However, version control and colaborative work are not exactly 
easy in liveCode. For me this is the only major downside of liveCode. 

Other things that come to mind I'd see as a downside:
The script editor and to a certain extend the other tools could use an 
overhaul. They are not terrible, but there would be certain things I would 
really love to see (read refactoing). 

Very happy camper otherwise. I love the engine. I love how productive it lets 
me be. Devs are always greedy I guess. Always want better. On the other side, I 
stick with LC since 10 years now (gosh 10 years of derbrill in april) and it is 
my main dev platform, so there must be something to it :-D

Cheers,

Malte
