With HyperLinkButton you can't. If your OOB app is in full trust mode you can use automation object InternetExplorer.Application to open and control IE.

If someone has defaulted to one browser (let say Chrome), you cannot ask the current browser (using JavaScript) to open the link to a specific browser (i.e. you want Internet Explorer instead of Chrome). I am not sure about Flash or Silverlight's ability to do what you want.

I have found a technique but it is specific to VBScript inside Excel and it may need the UA agent check to make sure it works correctly for a target environment if you want to adapt the similar code in Silverlight:
