It works in Oracle Forms 6:

declare
  w_id pls_integer;
begin
  w_id := GET_ITEM_PROPERTY(Find_Item('CONTROL.B_REPORTS'), WINDOW_HANDLE);
  WIN_API_SHELL.SendMessage( w_id, 516 );  -- WM_RBUTTONDOWN
  WIN_API_SHELL.SendMessage( w_id, 517 );  -- WM_RBUTTONUP
end;

I completely agree with @APC above; this is not a standard UI convention. And it is not possible to override the default functionality of the right click menu within Forms. You could however, build a small window/canvas/block made to look like the right click menu and default it's starting window position to be the mouse X,Y coordinate.
