"Drilldown Dashboard Button Click Event" is kind of mixing metaphors... so it's hard to know exactly what you want.

If you want to interact with a web site or web service in the form of a URL you can do something like this from a drilldown:

<!-- $click.value$ captures the value clicked by the user -->
         <!-- and passes it to the website as a query parameter        -->
         <drilldown>          
           <link>
              http://apps.splunk.com/integrated_search/?q=$click.value$
           </link>
         </drilldown>

Check out the doc here and perhaps you'll see an example that matches your question. OR... show us your Dashboard source code.

With Splunk... the answer is always "YES!". It just might require more regex than you're prepared for!
