Is there any way to create a PDF from Word and then access the Word document from within the new PDF to edit its content.

Hi,
You have a couple of options:
1. Use the Touch_up Text tool (Tools: Advanced Editing: Touch-Up Text to make very minor edits. Acrobat will not flow text in a paragraph.
2. If the file came from Word, you can export a Word file from the PDF file. (File: Export: Word). Re-edit it, and regenrate the PDF file.
However, the conversion from Word to PDF and back isn't perfect. If you need to send a copy of the file for editing purposes, then attach the original Word file to the PDF using the Attachment pane at the bottom of the dopcument window (it looks like a paper clip).

But anyway..
You can't "edit" the Word document in Word from the new PDF.
You can do minor touch-ups to the PDF created from Word that don't involve major changes....such as fixing spelling; punctuation, minor word replacments.
You can fix the page in Word, print a PDF of that page only, and replace a page within your existing PDF with the correct page.
If those answers don't help; see if you can tell us more about the problem.
Acrobat is probably the program I use most often and I'm learning more every day.
