It is possible, see the filename link type.

Here's an example from the manual:

  \hlopts{ext=.pdf}
  \hlstart{filename}{file=book}{dest123}
    Link to dest123 in file `book.pdf'\hlend

To simplify this, you can use something like:

  \hlopts{ext=.pdf}
  \def\booklink{\hlstart{filename}{file=book}}

  \booklink{dest123}
    Link to dest123 in file `book.pdf'\hlend

Or did you mean something else?

Best,
