Sure, you can do this.

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Button b1 = new Button();
            b1.Size = new Size(200, 200);
            Button b2 = new Button();
            // Adding event
            b2.Click += new EventHandler(test);
            b1.Controls.Add(b2);
            Controls.Add(b1);
        }

        void test(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("hi");
        }

Double click at Form GUI and paste the code following code in Form1_Load event.

Button b1 = new Button();
            b1.Size = new Size(200, 200);
            Button b2 = new Button();
            // Adding event
            b2.Click += new EventHandler(test);
            b1.Controls.Add(b2);
            Controls.Add(b1);

And also Paste the definition of test() Method outside the Form1_Load event.
