No, it's a read-only property.

You can create a new Uri though:

var url = new Uri("http://absoluteurl.example.com");
// url.AbsoluteUri is now "http://absoluteurl.example.com"

No, you can't. But you can create a Uri with the desire AbsoluteUri by constructing one:

Uri url = new Uri("http://www.google.com");

No, you cannot, it is derived from the URI. See the MSDN documentation for Uri.AbsoluteUri.

Example from MSDN

Uri baseUri = new Uri("http://www.contoso.com");
Uri myUri = new Uri(baseUri,"catalog/shownew.htm?date=today");
