yes, and it is easy, too...

that is because there is essentially no difference between a notebook
and another window. There are helper functions like CreateDialog, but
actually they just create notebook-windows with some of the many options
of Notebook set to specific values, so the windows look and behave
differently.

try this:
CreateDialog[DynamicModule[{f = Sin}, Grid[{
{PopupMenu[Dynamic[f], {Sin, Cos, Exp, Log, Tan}],
Panel[Dynamic@Plot[f[x], {x, 0, 1},
Background -> White, Frame -> True, ImageSize -> 400]]},
{"", Manipulate[
Plot[Sin[n x], {x, 0, 2 \[Pi]}, Frame -> True, ImageSize -> 400],
{n, 0, 1},
AppearanceElements -> None
]},
{Button["Close", DialogReturn[]], SpanFromLeft}
}]]]
