Mouse events without capturing the mouse?

I'm a bit new at autoit so I'm trying to figure out if this is even possible. Is it possible to have Mouse events without capturing the mouse?

I want to be able to have a game running in windowed mode off to the side or ideally even in the background, but still have autoit making mouse clicks in that window without grabbing the mouse and interrupting what I'm doing.

Is this a possibility or is it outside the realm of what autoit can do?

Don't believe it's possible to have a 'mouse clone'. AutoIt would have to use your mouse to click something.

The fastest way you could do this however is this:

$aPos = MouseGetPos()
MouseClick("Primary", X, Y, 1, 0) ; 1 click, instant move
MouseMove($aPos[0], $aPos[1], 0) ; Move the mouse back to it's original position
