I am thinking of maps that turn the icon to a hand. Then you click the map and drag it in the direction you want to scroll the map.
This moves the map within the window and does not move the window.
Is that possible?

In short: no sorry.
The long more technical explanation:
The map window is made up of several pages or layers.
The map (the picture) is the bottom layer - In Default UI
On top of that is a "Locations" which holds the player, group, and waypoint icon images which dynamically move in game - In Default UI
Finally eq2map adds an overlay layer which holds the POIs for certain maps which are included by both soe and eq2map - EQ2MAp
If all these layers were included in a single page (say MainCropPage), it would be more versatile; it could be set up so that it could grabbed and dragged (probably could even make the map window resizable and scrollable). The problem is we can't move all the pages into a single page because the client would no longer update anything. The map would never change and the group/player/waypoint icons would never update.
The crop page is something "wished" for a long time ago
