is this natualral expression?

Hi.

I'd like to say to someone like this.
I am not coming here hear that.

"I am not coming" is OK. In conversation, "I am" would usually be "I'm". "here" normally refers to the place where you are now, so I'm not sure whether "I'm not coming here" is really what you mean.

"hear that" has no proper connection with the earlier words. I'm not sure what you intend by it. Perhaps

I think the speaker decided that he don't come again here, so it can be possible like "I won't come here again" doesn't it make sense?

GPYYes, "I won't come here again" makes sense.
"I'm not coming here again" is also used, and, I would guess, may be a bit more common.
