Hello and welcome.

You could use devilspie to force the window to a set location. The application itself doesn't exactly do this - you could use the "xfce4-popup-whiskermenu -c" command to pop it up at the centre of the screen, but nothing natively.

~/.devilspie/wm.ds:

(if (is (window_name) "Whisker Menu")
	(begin
		(geometry "450x500+631+540")
	)
) 

...not that the devlispie executable needs to be running.
