Azure Service Bus is a messaging service, not a Notifications service. As such, it deals solely with messaging, and doesn't create notifications for you.

AWS combines SQS (Simple Queuing Service) with SNS (Simple Notification Service) behind the scenes to allow you the functionality you're describing. This is to allow SQS to have a behaviour of events. Azure Service Bus has a native support for Topics and Subscriptions (if that's what you're looking for). I.e. rather than just sending messages to a queue, the message is sent to a topic and appropriate subscriber(s) will get it.

So the short answer to this question in case you don't want to receive the message and trigger a notification is "no".

Saying that, if you're OK with "serverless" functions (similar to AWS Lambdas), you could use Azure Functions to achieve this goal.
