In gitk? This is be possible. My patch[1] does it. The way it's done stinks a little bit, though. <Enter> and <Leave> are bound on a tag common to all the "hyperlinks", and change the -cursor of the whole widget---either to hand2 or the empty string.

+    $ctext tag bind Commit <Enter> { %W configure -cursor hand2 }
+    $ctext tag bind Commit <Leave> { %W configure -cursor {} }
My patch also underlines links, as requested in a different message in this thread.
+    $ctext tag configure Commit -underline yes -foreground blue
