Can a 2003 ford ranger 4wd manual trans be flat towed?

No, a 2003 Ford Ranger 4WD with a manual transmission should not be flat towed. Flat towing a manual transmission vehicle can damage the transmission due to the engine spinning without lubrication. The transmission needs to be in neutral, but even then, the transmission's internal components can still be damaged. Consult your owner's manual for specific towing recommendations for your vehicle; it will likely recommend a different towing method, such as being loaded onto a trailer.
