Untested, but you could run this if TM_SELECTED_TEXT is unset:

     TextMate.system('"$TM_MATE" 
-l"$TM_LINE_NUMBER-$((TM_LINE_NUMBER+1))"', null)

Then it will select the current line and x-insert should thus replace 
it.

By default "$TM_MATE" works on current document found via the 
TM_DOCUMENT_UUID environment variable.
