Is there a way to open a .livecodescript file inwith the IDE, edit it, and save it?

OK: I have worked out how to do that.

BUT, I'd like to open a .livecodescript file with code using a file path . . .

Hi Richmond,

yes, just use the OPEN dialog.
LC will create a "temporary" script window, where you can edit the script(s).

IMPORTANT:
Hit CMD-S (Save) while the script editor window is still open or your changes are lost.
