It's easier to use find/change although it could be done the way you're contemplating. Along these lines:

app.findPreferences = null;
app.changePreferences = null;
myFinds = objTextFrame.search("m2", false, false, undefined);
for (var j = myFinds.length - 1; j >= 0; j--) {
 myFinds[j].characters[-1].position = Position.superscript;
}

or, you could use a character style to do the superscripting:

 myFinds[j].characters[-1].appliedCharacterStyle = mySuperStyle;
