Is it possible to make such a chat?

Recently I found such a design of the messenger:

And the following question arose. Is it possible to receive chats and develop such a messenger by collecting chats from at least several chat services? The question is solely for the purpose of self-education, I searched on google, did not find it, or searched incorrectly. Please give hints on how to arrange this, if possible. Preferably do everything using javascript, nodejs...

Possibly easy if the service has a public API. For example, telegram. For most other services, protocol reverse engineering will be required, which is already quite difficult.

I think it depends on the specific service. It is unlikely that someone will provide an API, you can simulate the work of a client application / browser and download correspondence, showing them in the desired design.
Everything is in your hands :) But why?

There is a universal open source pidgin messenger.
It has plugins for steam-chat, skype, xmpp, icq and a bunch of other plugins .
Those. there is some possibility of integration.
At least all this is open source, which means you can get the necessary protocols from there yourself.
A desktop application on js can be done using Electron

Yes it is possible. Using streams and other benefits of Node.js
