Is it possible?
I thought shell() would do the trick but that only seems to execute on the server.

BYOND doesn't provide any method of doing this. You could try javascript, but most security settings will outright prevent it.
Would open a giant security hole and it's just not worth doing.

Right. Figured. I was hoping for some kind of dialog (yes/no) option.
