You can do that with a little help of JS. In the example below, a POST request is being submitted on a button click using the fetch method:

const button = document.getElementById('post-btn');

button.addEventListener('click', async _ => {
  try {     
    const response = await fetch('yourUrl', {
      method: 'post',
      body: {
        // Your body
      }
    });
    console.log('Completed!', response);
  } catch(err) {
    console.error(`Error: ${err}`);
  }
});
