There is, yes, the method bind , you can inform the event, which can be:

<Button-1> : A click .
<Double-Button-1> : Two clicks .
<Triple-Button-1> : Three clicks .
Among others ...

See an example:

from tkinter import *

def foo():
    print ('foo')

root = Tk()

frame = Frame(root)
frame.pack()

button1 = Button(frame, text = 'Foo!')
button1.pack()
button1.bind('<Double-Button-1>', foo)

root.mainloop()
