You can do this if you have the date_wday field in your data

index="someindex" date_wday IN ("monday","tuesday","wednesday","thursday","friday") date_hour>=18 date_hour<20
| dedup eventid
| timechart count(_raw) by eventName span=60m 

If you don't have those fields you can do

index="someindex" 
| eval date_wday=strftime(_time, "%a")
| eval date_hour=strftime(_time, "%H")
| search date_wday IN ("mon","tue","wed","thu","fri") date_hour>=18 date_hour<20
| dedup eventid
| timechart count(_raw) by eventName span=60m
