One can use a little script like this:

// how many tiles horizontally
var intTilesHorizontal = 4;
// how many tiles vertically
var intTilesVertical = 2;
// "horizontal" loop
for (var i = 0; i<intTilesHorizontal; i++) {
// "vertical" loop
for (var j = 0; j<intTilesVertical; j++) {
// unique name for new clip
var strName = "clipTile"+"X"+i+"Y"+j;
// unique depth for new clip
var intDepth = 100*i+j;
// create new clip (link "ClipTile" in the library)
// "clipBackground" is nothing but an empty clip
clipBackground.attachMovie("ClipTile", strName, intDepth);
// position new clip
clipBackground[strName]._x = clipBackground[strName]._width*i;
clipBackground[strName]._y = clipBackground[strName]._height*j;
}
}

Have a look at an example (with source):
