Any local messages on PC can be accessed, but nothing more, since you changed the passwords. With changed passwords, the thief cannot access the account, so cannot view online messages.
thank-you. Can old messages left on stolen laptop still be read .
Yes, they can be read.
I should add that the messages can be read even if there had been a primary password if the person has any knowledge of Thunderbird. Message folders are simple mbox files that can be viewed with any generic mbox viewer software or copied into a Thunderbird profile.
Your best bet for security is to password protect the PC.
