Yeah, that's doable.

local FrameToHide = Minimap
local MovementTimer = CreateFrame("Frame")
MovementTimer.UpdateInterval = 0.1
MovementTimer.ToggleDelay = 1
MovementTimer.Elapsed = 0
MovementTimer.StoppedElapsed = 0
MovementTimer.LastPosition = {x = 0, y = 0}
MovementTimer:Show()
MovementTimer:SetScript("OnUpdate", function(self, elapsed)
	MovementTimer.Elapsed = MovementTimer.Elapsed + elapsed
	if MovementTimer.Elapsed >= MovementTimer.UpdateInterval then
		local x, y = GetPlayerMapPosition("Player")
		if x == MovementTimer.LastPosition.x and y == MovementTimer.LastPosition.y then
			MovementTimer.StoppedElapsed = MovementTimer.StoppedElapsed + MovementTimer.Elapsed
			if MovementTimer.StoppedElapsed >= MovementTimer.ToggleDelay then
				FrameToHide:Hide()
			end
		else
			MovementTimer.StoppedElapsed = 0
			if not FrameToHide:IsShown() then FrameToHide:Show() end
		end
		MovementTimer.LastPosition.x = x
		MovementTimer.LastPosition.y = y
		MovementTimer.Elapsed = 0
	end
end)

If you want to hide a kgPanel with this code, then you'll need to create another kgPanel with this code in it's OnLoad section. And, instead of the top line local FrameToHide = Minimap, use local FrameToHide = kgPanels:FetchFrame("my panel") where mypanel is what you named the panel you want to hide in kgPanels.

Reason you need another panel, is that when you hide a frame, it's OnUpdate scripts no longer work.

Adjust MovementTimer.ToggleDelay to your liking. It's how long in seconds after you stop to hide the Minimap.
