Is it possible to trigger a group message on behalf of the group vs. individual team member?

This is possible because you can grant SendAs permission to the group mailbox in the same way as you can grant it to a normal mailbox. After that, it's a matter of selecting the group mailbox as the sender in Outlook or OWA and the right name will be stamped into the message header.
There's even a support article on the topic: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Use-PowerShell-to-manage-Office-365-Groups-Admin-help-aeb669aa-1770-4537-9de2-a82ac11b0540
