Yes, you definitely are. This is the real way how to use 240 hour visa free transit scheme. The essence of 240 hour visa free transit is that the immediate points before and after mainland China are located in two different countries or eligible territories (eligible territories are Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau). As you can see, your immediate points are located in Hong Kong (before mainland China) and in Malaysia (after mainland China) and that fact makes you eligible for 240 hour visa free transit. You should jut take care to arrive at Hong Kong West Kowloon train station roughly 90 - 120 minutes ahead of your planned train departure because of the formalities. Have a nice visit to China.
