No, the PNG standard does not support that.

However, URLs can be included in general-purpose TXT chunks
inside a PNG file, but I'm not aware of any software that
would interpret this as a "live link" that would be preserved
as such during conversion.

Another possibility, of course, would be to include a QR code
or DataMatrix code in the image contents itself, but I assume
that's not what you have in mind.
