Yes, it is easily done. You need to extend Dialog and then use 
AWTEventMulticaster to keep a list of registered ActionListeners to which 
an ActionEvent is dispatched when the button is pressed.  There is an 
excellent example in Chapter 6 of the book 'Java Examples in a Nutshell' 
by David Flanagan from O'Reilly - which is really worth buying (not too 
expensive either)

All the best
