is it possible to place the title bar of the window at the left oft it ?

Yes, you can make custom windows of any type you like. I don't know the Cocoa way of doing so, but I'm sure someone else here can point you in the right direction. I've done it in Carbon by writing a custom window definition function, and I believe it's also possible (and possibly easier) to do it using Carbon Events.

Actually, Carbon has a window style (window class?) that has a title bar down the left, at least for floating palette windows. I'm not sure how feasible that really is, but since you can supposedly mix-and-match Cocoa and Carbon since 10.2 (in a limited way even earlier), you may be able to create the window itself using Carbon API calls and then hook it up to an NSWindow after that.

But I have no idea how to tell an NSWindow to use an existing WindowRef, so far I've only seen a method in NSWindow that returns its WindowRef.
