Is customization of forum page titles (title tag) possible ?
Are any plugins available for this purpose? I searched but was unsuccessful in finding one.
Please help !!

I'm not sure what you are talking about. Can you show an image or give and example?

Say zoints seo plugin helps customize meta keywords & meta description. Is there a plugin or any way to customize what goes in the <title></title> tag. Right now it has a standard format like forumname - bbtitle. But i want to be able to customize it for seo purposes.

Customize each thread name? It is just in the showthread template. So, if you are wanting to use some other variable in there, you could just modify it there.

No its not about the threads. Say i have a parent forum 'Business Law' and a sub-forum under it called 'Alabama'. I want the page title for the 'Alabama' forum to be 'Business Law - Alabama '. But the generic shell has a standard format for page title which is just 'forum name'. Am i making sense now?
