You can achieve by doing this:

action_menu.xml

custom_action_view.xml

and menu inflater code is as follow:

public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
    inflater.inflate(R.menu.action_menu, menu);     

    final MenuItem item1= menu.findItem(R.id.item1);
    MenuItemCompat.setActionView(item1, R.layout.custom_action_view);
    View vItem1= MenuItemCompat.getActionView(item1);

    final ImageButton customActionItem= (ImageButton) vItem1.findViewById(R.id.customActionItem);
    customActionItem.setOnLongClickListener(new OnLongClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            // do something here
        }
    });

    return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}
