The only variants of the Place command that allows for autflow appears to be the ones associated with the page, spread and masterSpread objects.

Autoflow is also available when generating an index.

So, if you're using place in association with a text selection, then you're out of luck. You'll need to test for overset after the fact and fix it by script. I just posted a function I use in another topic.
