Add Meta box Befoure Post Title

The only real chance you got is to hook into admin_notices, which is above the post-new.php page title & icon:

function  wpse27700_above_title_content()
{
    ?>
    <style>
    /* 
    You might need to attach some styles here,
    to not get into the admin notices styles 
    */
    </style>

    <h1>TEST</h1>
    <p>This is a test message</p>
    <?php
}

// This is needed to only hook on the post new & edit screens.
function wpse27700_admin_head()
{
    add_action( 'admin_notices', 'wpse27700_above_title_content', 9999 );
}
add_action( 'admin_head-post-new.php', 'wpse27700_admin_head' );
add_action( 'admin_head-post.php', 'wpse27700_admin_head' );
