I don't think it is possible.

However you may use some server-side thingy to emulate something similar.

you click to a link
a new window opens with a layout something like
----
e-mail address of the recipient : [input ]
subject: [input]
your message:
[textarea] (or a rich text area of your preference)

[SEND - button (submit)]
---

When you submit the form, the server will send a mail to the recipient
with the attached file enclosed.

Does that make sense?
