How to confirm and call function with onclick

Can I call JavaScript function with return confirm(); in HTML onclick event or do I need to do function which contains confirmation and call to another function?

<button onclick="return confirm('Are you sure?'); saveandsubmit(event);"></button>

Thanks in advance.
