The only way to do this would be with JavaScript. You'd do something like this:

<textarea name="blah" cols="20" rows="5" onchange="checkLength(this, 50)">
</textarea>
<script type="text/javascript">
function checkLength(ta, maxLen){
 if(ta.value.length>maxLen){
window.alert("This text area may only contain " + maxLen + " characters, you tried to enter " + ta.value.length);
 }
}
</script>
