Yes, this is possible by changing the "New PM Notification" code in the navbar template to:

HTML Code:

<td class="alt2" valign="top" nowrap="nowrap">
    <span id="ajaxnewpmdiv">
        <a href="/forum/private.php?$session[sessionurl]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/newpm.gif" alt="You have a new PM" border="0"></a>
    </span>
</td>

Since the visibility of the ajaxnewpmdiv element is controlled by JavaScript code, anything within the <span id="ajaxnewpmdiv"> ... </span> block will be "revealed" when a new private message arrives.
