Can you?

I am still learning with animation in general in Flash, and whilst animating something, I realised that if it was animated on another timeline and not the main timeline, I could then move it around independently of the animation going on within it. For example a car moving around whilst its wheels are spinning.

I animated a bouncing number 8 on the spot. I did this on the main timeline. Is it possible to move this animation onto another timeline so that I can animate the bouncing 8 so that it bounces and moves in other directions at the same time?
