No. If you want to TK a soaring figure, the TK'er must be soaring (and vice versa for grounded figures).

Here's the power description from the PAC. Notice that it says nothing about changing flight levels.

TELEKINESIS (optional): Give this character a power action and choose one of the following. Note that for option 1 and 2, the target character automatically breaks away and ignores the effects of characters and hindering terrain on movement. The target may be placed on elevated terrain but may not be placed on or in blocking terrain. This character must have a clear line of fire to the target square. (1) It may make one close combat attack. This attack deals no damage. If the attack is successful, you may move the target character up to 10 squares. (2) It may move a target adjacent object that is not being held or a target friendly character up to 10 squares. (3) It may make a ranged combat attack using an object that is not held by another character (see the “Objects” section of the rulebook). This character must have a clear line of fire to the target of the attack.

The rule forbidding changes between soaring and non-soaring by TK used to be in the FAQ. I'm not sure if it is still there.
