If they will form a character (letter / number / symbol) there is a certain relationship between width and height. To comply with that, look for smaller LEDs, a bigger board or less LEDs..
 
This is the nearest I know of; they will stack at 0.1" pitch - but that is still going to take more than 5 x 45mm...

You can get the width down by using double stacked ones, but that puts the height up..

Other than that, you would likely need custom-made light pipe, with an array of surface mount LEDs flat on the PCB and an acrylic "comb" style light pipe that routes the LED light to a row or array of dots on the PCB end area..
There are a range of off-the-shelf light pipes available, but none I know of that exactly suit your application.

This is close, but it's more than 5mm tall.
