No. You can't.

A: bringing up the LCB guide from Help > All Guides > Guide tab > 
LiveCode Builder Language Reference brings up the guide in the 
dictionary viewer, from which there is no search feature.

B: bringing up the LCB guide from Help > User Guide does bring up the 
pdf viewer version, but that's a single 653-page document. You can't 
limit a search to just one section, e.g., search for "switch" in just LCB.
