Is it possible to create Point and Figure Bar Type Charts based on, let's say, 1,5 or 60 minute closing price(last) data? I know this might sound naïve (it is not) in that, by definition, PnF is not "time-based". I would want to only use those fixed, time-based closing prices as the data to determine reversal conditions based on the already determined box size and reversal amounts.

This can be done by using the Point and Figure Study:

Refer to the detailed documentation about this. You will also want to set the Calculate Only Using Close Prices Input to Yes.
