It is not possible to mask a dynamic text field trough the layers panel.
However, you are able to do this in the code. This requires the mask to be a MovieClip and is initiated like this:
AS3:
targetClip.mask = maskClip
AS2:
targetClip.setMask = maskClip
targetClip being the MovieClip that needs to be masked.
maskClip being the MovieClip that IS the mask.
