You could create a custom component like this;

<script>
AFRAME.registerComponent('clickhandler', {
        schema: {
          txt: {default:'default'}
        },        
        init: function () {
          var data = this.data;
          var el = this.el;        
          el.addEventListener('click', function () {            
           console.log(data.txt);
          });        
        }
      });
</script>

<a-image src="img1.png" clickhandler="txt:image1"></a-image>
<a-box clickhandler="txt:box1"></a-box>

<a-entity cursor="rayOrigin:mouse"></a-entity>

If you are using the cursor component:

box.addEventListener('click', function (evt) { // ... });

If you want to use the mouse cursor, try https://www.npmjs.com/package/aframe-mouse-cursor-component
