There's a fishy smell coming from the plate and it won't go away.

Yes. You can also change “on the plate” to “on this plate” to indicate a specific plate.

It is understandable but not quite natural.
We don't usually say a smell is on something.
It would sound more natural:
The plate has a fishy smell and It won't go away.
Or, the plate smells fishy.
