If I understand correctly, you want to create a new dashboard or visualization if a newly indexed document in ES meets a certain criteria?

If I understand that correctly, the answer is no it's not possible today. Maybe someday when we have a [Kibana REST API](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/4917) you could create a watch with [Watcher](https://www.elastic.co/products/x-pack/alerting) that would fire off a visualization creation request.
