I am fairly certain this does not already exist, but wanted to check in case it does.  What I'd like to do is have a Bitmessage client running on an offline computer (air-gapped, never brought online), create a message, then copy that message to a USB drive or equivalent, having another computer actually broadcast the message to the rest of the network.

The reason for this is, it would eliminate the potential for a compromised sending machine to leak the contents of the message to whomever had compromised it.  Basically, the same reason one might have an air-gapped machine signing transactions offline from a cold wallet, only applied to communications.

So, is there a method of doing this?  Is it at all possible?

Not yet but I'm sure current Bitcoin tools can be modified
