Possibly: http://www.effectgames.com/effect/ and in particular http://www.effectgames.com/effect/#Article/docs/Sprites_and_Tiles_Guide However note that effect is free to use but proprietary and not open source.
Other Javascript/Canvas game engine libraries that would make it easy (but may not have specific tile support/documentation):
- http://github.com/kesiev/akihabara
- http://gamejs.org/
- http://code.google.com/p/cakejs/
- http://gamequery.onaluf.org/

Did you find one you liked? I'm anxiously awaiting the Isogenic engine: http://www.isogenicengine.com/ – JayCrossler Feb 20 '11 at 00:21
