Back with Debian Sid and trying to install flash plugin via smxi.
The non-free option to install this plugin does not function.
ie. If I click on this option the selections just reload.
Is it possible at this time to install 64bit flash plugin via smxi?

there is currently no native 64 bit plugin, but I believe adobe is in the process of creating one again after removing it for a while.

Just checked, adobe flash 11 again supports linux 64 bit, not sure if that's available as a package yet or not, it was just released a few days ago.

<update>
I checked the code, smxi checks two packages, flashplugin-nonfree then flashplayer-mozilla and if neither is available it will flash a message that it's not available.

I used this method because depending on the repos you have, for example debian-multimedia, the package name is different, but ideally always the official debian package will be used first if present.
