Yes, if you can programatically create the URL.

Very simply. Edit your service notification command to include, in the  
appropriate place you want it to appear, --

Url: http://000.000.000.000/nagios/cgi-bin/graphs.cgi?host=$HOSTNAME$&service=$SERVICEDESC$

Note that this will only work if your service descriptions do not  
contain spaces or any other special URL characters (&, ?, etc). If  
they do, you'll need to make your notiifcation command an actual  
script that URI  Escapes those before sending the e-mail.
