Unfortunately, not likely. With the problem being at the WordPress end, not the 
SEEdit end. 

I inherited a client with a WordPress site, and wanted to do my total redesign 
off-line. Searched the WP site, the WP Codex, and Google for how to do that. 
There is very little info on that. 

The reason seems to be that WordPress stores absolute links for images and 
things. So if the finished site is uploaded, many of the links will be wrong. I 
guess one can work offline, if one does a series of global search & replaces 
before unloading the finished site. Right now, that's more than I'd care to 
undertake.
