Not with Messenger Plus! itself.
There are scripts available which do this,
but:
NONE of them are reliable at all and thus they don't work at all.
If it isn't reliable you have absolutely NO way of knowing if the event was legit or if it was a false trigger.
In fact the thing you seek is NOT possible anymore since a long long time. Not with Plus!, not with ANY other tool/addon/plugin/script or whatever you'll find for Messenger.
Programs which claim they can show you a notification when someone closes the chat window are lying.
It does not work anymore.
The reason why it doesn't work anymore is simple: it is the way the protocol works. A protocol is the mechanism of how Messenger
talks to its servers.
When a contact opens a new conversation window with you a new
connection session is opened with you (via the servers). This session can be detected and this is actually what all those
Notifiers do. They do not detect opened or closed windows, they detect sessions. And there is a big difference.
Such a session is also opened when a contact views your profile, looks at your display picture, looks at your contact card, etc, etc. In short, if a contact requests any kind of info about you, a session is opened. Thus not only when he/she opens a chat window.
In fact, a contact doesn't need to physically do something, his/hers Messenger itself can and will open sessions from time to time with you.
The same goes for detecting when a session is closed. Because a session is not only created when a contact opens a conversation window with you, you will also recieve closed session notifications for all kinds of different events.
Moreover, if a contact doesn't talk to you for a few minutes or even seconds (depends), a session is automatically closed, even before he/she closed the conversation window. And you wont recieve a notification anymore when he closes a conversation window after Messenger already closed the session.
In other words, such tools can NOT individually detect opened or closed conversation windows. Those who claim they can don't know what they're talking about. And those who claim they can see the difference between a
false notification and a
real chat window notification, are wrong too. There is no way to see the difference, at all...
A long time ago it was possible (with MSN Messenger 6), because Messenger didn't had all those different features and scenarios where sessions are used, and thus opened and closed, but that long past history (since MSN Messenger 7)...

Big discussion about the reliability:
The open/closed window notifier feature
Scripts (compatible with Messenger Plus! Live):
Convo Notifier / Live Notifier
Session Open Notifier
Open Window Notification (POC that a random notification is just as (un)reliable)
