Hi,
Not straightforward FCS but RICS, Enrico Graton has several papers with it in conventional confocals.
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gratton/
also this one for adapting a confocal
http://rsi.aip.org/resource/1/rsinak/v76/i3/p033106_s1
On my PhD I've used Confocor1..with PMTs as far as I remember. Of course detection efficienty is critical.
Also, in theory, if you could park the beam and make the image you should be able to do it, I would say. We are know asking Leica to be able to control the galvos for trying with the new hyd detectors. I must say that I'm not an specialist in the subject, I might be simplistic.
Regarding software I've used a commercial package www.sstcenter.com.
I just found this but never test it.

Looks interesting though...its free and I'm cheap,

Regarding software I'm not a specialist but I've used for my PhD thesis
