Hello, I think this can be done by set 'handle-lid-switch' to 'ignore'
(it's 'suspend' by default) for the 'elogind-service-type', for example:

(operating-system
  ...
  (services
    (cons* (xfce-desktop-service)
           (modify-services %desktop-services
             (elogind-service-type
               c => (elogind-configuration
                      (handle-lid-switch 'ignore)))))))

Hope it helps!
