3M makes a dry type Silicone Lubricant (3M 08897) that I have used on my older cars when I've had window noise problems. I was given this from the Honda dealer when I bought a new window regulator for my old Accord. You can spray it with the little tube right down the window side track with the window up. If you really feel like getting crazy you can pull off the door panel and get inside an lube up things, but I would start with the spray.

If you are still under warranty, take them to the dealer.

If the noise is due to glass and the channel or the rain deflector, then opening the door would not help. If it is due to the inside mechanism (scissors) then it would be worth while.
Some times it is better to live with minor/(fleeting) issues than to try to fix them.

Clean the glass and try lubricating the channels as well as the top inside bead of the rain deflector [With the window rolled all the way down].
