If you want to close the popup window of your extension, the JavaScript code can close the popup window by itself forcibly.

window.close();

Unfortunately, we don't have any ways to open the popup window of BrowserAction/PageAction. Instead, you can change the tooltip text, the badge text and the background color with chrome.browserAction/chrome.pageAction APIs.
