It should work, something like:
\font\tibt=file:TibetanMachineUniAlpha.ttf:mode=node;script=tibt;language=dflt;+ccmp;+blws;+abvs;+blwm;+abvm;+calt;+kern at 14pt
\tibt
བོད་ཡིག་བརྡ་ཚད་ལྡན་དུ་སྒྱུར་བའི་ལ ས་དོན་ཨུ་ཡོན་ལྷན་ཁང་གིས་བསྒྲིགས.

But I don't have a working plain/latex formate right now to test.

Regards,
 Khaled
