The flags of Co. C (Magnolia Cadets), a fragment of Co. D (Canebrake Guard), Company E (Conecuh Guards), and Company G (Marion Light Infantry) are at the Alabama Department of Archives. They have an active website on which you can view photographs of these flags.
The flag of Company H (Lauderdale Volunteers) is a Pope's Tavern Museum in Florence, Ala.
The 4th Alabama was mustered into Confederate service at Lynchburg, Virginia on May 7, 1861. From then until their surrender at Appomattox Courthouse, they would've been issued flags from the Richmond Depot. I don't know of any of their regimental flags surviving the war.
Good luck.
