you cannot select all textframes at once as you can't do in the UI.
however you can create a collection of textframes and loop thought it to move the positions.
var mytf = app.activeDocument.textFrames.everyItem().getElements();
for(i=0; i<mytf.length; i++) { 	var x = mytf[i].geometricBounds[1]; 	var y = 2 //for example; 	mytf[i].move([x,y]); } I tried [undefined,2] but it seems you cannot avoid move only one axis only.
