у я не могу сослаться наActualWidth в качестве значения, которое я смог использовать в коде.

XAML:

    <StackPanel>
        <Button x:Name="cmdVibrate" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
            <Button.Triggers>
                <EventTrigger RoutedEvent="Button.MouseEnter">
                    <BeginStoryboard>
                        <Storyboard >
                            <DoubleAnimation From="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=Self},Path=ActualWidth}" By="200" AutoReverse="True" Duration="0:0:1" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Width"></DoubleAnimation>
                        </Storyboard>
                    </BeginStoryboard>
                </EventTrigger>
            </Button.Triggers>
            Mouse over me to shake
        </Button>
    </StackPanel>
</Window>
