Is there a way to be able to use FP2002 themes graphics after upgrading to
FP2003?

Hi Mark,

Not sure I understand the question but if it is will the themes migrate to
FP3 the answer is yes.
 
Actually they won't migrate if you do an install that upgrades FPX to FP2003

Prior Version themes were typically installed in the folder:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Themes
FrontPage 2003 themes are now installed in the folder:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\THEMES11
So FP2003 will only see the new FP2003 themes

If a FPX theme has been applied to a site and you open the site in FP2003 you will have that theme, but not the other older themes

More info on conversion of prior themes is being worked on

PS
Your custom themes will be available, so you can modify and save as a new theme name your older themes in FP2002/2002 before you
upgrade to make them available in FP2003
