So, I was thinking of setting up watch kittens. I would enclose kittens in small glass rooms throughout the land. When goblin ambushes would come, the kittens would see them coming. Would this work? Can dwarves and animals see ambushes trough windows?

Yep.

Generally, my external construction consists of watchtowers.  Small 3x3 rooms built on stills, with windows above-ground and no direct access (have to rebuild stairs every time you want to access it).  This makes them immune to building destroyers but still able to detect enemies when manned by some animal.  As for above ground in general, I do a small walled area (like 20x20) with a butcher, tanner, some refuse stocks, and some finished good stocks, to quickly burn through any sudden animal slaughter and have my caravan-packers close to the depot.

I don't bother with protecting the kittens. The bastards reproduce faster than goblins can kill them. I also use cavy pupps.
