To take your request completely literally, you can measure the position of your current insertion point (by getting the horizontal offset and baseline), then move the containing text frame by the appropriate amount (x - x0, y - y0) where x0 and y0 are where the insertion point is before the move.

But I don't think that's quite what you want.
