I can't hold out high hopes: adding more AppleScript support has been on in the bug tracking system for 17+ years and doesn't seem to have any momentum. Probably your best bet for now is to find hacks other people have posted rather than waiting for a more complete API on Firefox's side.

How does AppleScript work? Can it emulate keyboard action? The keyboard shortcut to close the current tab is Command+w (on Windows, it's Ctrl+w).

This works but it's not ideal:

tell application "Firefox" to activate tell application "System Events" to keystroke "w" using command down

A more complete AppleScript dictionary for Firefox would be the preferred solution.
