Yes -- there is even a script to export layers to AS from Photoshop, providing you have version 7 or higher. Search for it on this forum.
You can't have everything. Where would you put it?

Script is already included in Anime studio, just go to install dir and open

E-Frontier\Anime Studio Pro 5.6\Extra Files

copy and paste it in Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 7 or\Presets\scripts\
folder

Don't forget to "make" you character in separate pieces, otherwise you would not be able to animate it successfully.

I have Photoshop 7 and that particular script only works with Photoshop CS. PS 7 didn't have that cool new scripting interface.
