Can you use corn starch to make tortillas?

No. Corn starch is a thickener, whereas masa is a fine ground cornmeal used for making tortillas or tamales. It is far too coarse to use as a thickening agent. You can substitute either tapioca starch or rice flour, in a pinch. If you're really desperate, try making a roux (fat, like butter or margarine, melted with flour added until it becomes a thick paste). However, if you're only using it to thicken a soup or stew, you can add some finely diced potato at the beginning of the cooking process. That will release starch during the cooking that should thicken a little, as well.
