How can i use fsolve to obtain the complex roots of the equation: sin(2*x)-2*x=0?

Well, you definitely can't find more than one. fsolve is a numerical solver.

Providing fsolve with a complex initial estimate encourages it to find complex roots —
f = @(x) sin(2*x)-2*x;
xrts = fsolve(f, 1+1i)
Equation solved. fsolve completed because the vector of function values is near zero as measured by the value of the function tolerance, and the problem appears regular as measured by the gradient.
xrts = 0.0320 + 0.0197i

True.
However the request was to how to return a complex root. We know nothing more about the intended problem.

Only if the objective is analytic, see
It's not clear to me whether that is true or not for sin(2*x)-2*x.

This seems to find a non-trivial complex root:
opts=optimoptions('fsolve','StepTol',1e-14,'FunctionTol',1e-14,'OptimalityTol',1e-14);
[p,fval]=fsolve(@eqnfun,[3,3],opts);
Equation solved, inaccuracy possible. The vector of function values is near zero, as measured by the value of the function tolerance. However, the last step was ineffective.
x=complex(p(1), p(2)),
x = 3.7488 + 1.3843i
sin(2*x)-2*x
ans = 0.0000e+00 + 2.2204e-15i
function F=eqnfun(p)
x=complex(p(1), p(2));
y=sin(2*x)-2*x;
F=[real(y); imag(y)];
end

There is obviously also a solution at x = -3.7488 - 1.3843i

Thanks Matt. Just in case you have asked yourselves how an equation like this occurs: in solving certain biharmonic equations the solution at some point requires obtaining the eigenvalues (pN) that are complex roots of this equation:
sin(2pN)=2pN
So, not only is there a complex solution to this equation, but there is apparently an infinite number of solutions
