That's the idea :-)

The following function issues "maximize -68p 100" if the pointer's
x position is < 1024 and "maximize 100 100" otherwise.
addtofunc mymaximize
+ i piperead `if [ $[pointer.x] -lt 1024 ]; then echo maximize -68p 100; else echo
maximize 100 100; fi`
This one uses -68p if the right edge of the window is on the left
screen:
addtofunc mymaximize2
+ i piperead `if [ $(( $[w.x] + $[w.width] )) -le 1024 ]; then echo maximize -68p
100; else echo maximize 100 100; fi`
You get the idea. If fvwm does not support it, you can often
pass some variable to a shell and let it do the calculations.
It's a bit confusing because the inner $[w.x] etc is expanded by
fvwm, while all remaining $... are expanded by the shell. The man
page documents all the variable fvwm supports (section COMMAND
EXPANSION).
