The Xorg server does not support 32bit output, this is done by compositing
clients like many WMs, eg. KWin, Mutter (gnome3), Metacity, Compiz etc. or
standalone compositors like compton or xcompmgr.

You want an ARGB window, the provided SO link basically shows how to do that:

Also toolkits like Qt or gtk+ nicely abstract this (what will make your life
much easier, if you use such)
