While firefox doesn't really have an 'app' mode¹, it can sort of be emulated by 
using a separate profile and a custom userChrome.css for that profile that 
hides most of the chrome.
See https://askubuntu.com/a/487954/167099 for details.

What this doesn't provide, afaict, is a way to customize the window
title and icon (the shell will keep associating this new window to
firefox instead of considering it a separate app).
