I am using a startprocessWriter plugin which is available in the shared components to trigger a process model. I am triggering this from a Dashboard layout (Records/Reports). If the process that is triggered has UI node, is it possible to show that UI node once the process is triggered rather than BE at the Dashboard layout itself?

Or Any other alternate approaches to alert the user of the task getting created within the same Dashboard?

I recall that is you chain the triggered process model from start to end then when you're returned to the Dashboard then any changes made by that process model will be reflected in the dashboard. If you raise the Task in a sub-process, asynchronously from the main process, then it should available when you come back to the dashboard. Because of the async nature you'd be advised to inject a short wait (say, 3 seconds) in the chained process model, after the task sub-process has been initiated, to avoid the resultant race condition.
