Validate for a button click/selected in Magento using the built-in validation

I know the Magento validation javascript library is pretty powerful, however I am trying to make Magento recognise 3 buttons and have the user be forced to select one before they can proceed, is this possible using the current javascript library in Magento.

This isn't a problem usually but in this case rather than input buttons I am using a standard button (probably not the best way to approach this tbh)

<li class="fields">
    <div class="field">
       <button class="button organisation_type" value="1" type="button"><span><span><?php echo $this->__('Org A') ?></span></span></button>
       <button class="button organisation_type" value="2" type="button"><span><span><?php echo $this->__('Org B') ?></span></span></button>
       <button class="button organisation_type" value="3" type="button"><span><span><?php echo $this->__('Org C') ?></span></span></button>
    </div>
</li>

Is it possible using the built in library which uses the css classes to have this request the user to select one button from the three above?

is it possible for you to use radio-button instead of buttons? if the answer is yes - then you can add 3 radio buttons (for the 3 organisations), give them the same name so the user can select only one value, and then add them the class "required-entry".
