Yep! This sample script will open Notepad, and move the mouse around inside its window. Press ESC to stop the script. Move the Notepad window to another location, resize the window, and run the script again. The mouse will stay within the window at the new location. Additional code is required if the window is moved after starting the script.

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Exit")

If Not WinExists("Untitled - Notepad") Then Run("Notepad")
Sleep(200)
WinActivate("Untitled - Notepad")
Local $iPos[4]
Opt("MouseCoordMode", 1)
; Left, Top, Width, Height
$iPos = WinGetPos("Untitled - Notepad")
$iMinX = $iPos[0]; Left
$iMinY = $iPos[1]; Top
$iMaxX = $iPos[2]; Width
$iMaxY = $iPos[3]; Height

; Move the mouse randomly within the Notepad window.
while 1
   MouseMove($iMinX + Random(0, $iMaxX, 1), $iMinY + Random(0, $iMaxY, 1), 10)
WEnd
exit

Func _Exit()
   Exit
EndFunc
