Edit: The only thing that matters is the speed of atmosphere relative to the plane.
If a plane is sitting on a treadmill with its wheels moving at a speed corresponding to the speed of the treadmill the atmosphere is stationary relative to the plane.
In this situation if the plane attempts to accelerate it can and will take off. However it will not take off just by sitting there.
Edit2: Unless you are implying that the "negative" windspeed relative to the plane prevents it from accelerating. That doesn't sound right to me, but if you have a good argument for it I am interested.
