You could do this with normal TS if you make a condition if the field 
list_type of any content on current page element contains the name of your 
plugin.

But if course a conditionen like 
[pluginLoaded = indexed_search]
page.includeJS.lightbox = fileadmin/res/lightbox.js
[global]
would be much more readable
