here, at least, is a start for how to do something like this (though I
do not know of a global setting that does it).

This will make it so that the notebook object nb comes  into focus
when the mouse is above it:


SetOptions[nb
 NotebookEventActions -> {"MouseMoved" :> (SetSelectedNotebook[
      EvaluationNotebook[]])}]


I hope this helps...
