of course.

   gtk_signal_connect (GTK_OBJECT(the_clist), "button_press_event",
                       (GtkSignalFunc) my_handler, NULL);

   ....

   gint my_handler (GtkWidget *w, GdkEventButton *ev, gpointer data) 
   {
       gint row, col;

       switch (ev->type) {
       case GDK_2BUTTON_PRESS:
	    gtk_clist_get_selection_info (GTK_CLIST(w), ev->x, ev->y,
					  &row, &col);
            break;					  
       ...

You may want to (conditionally) add:

      gtk_signal_emit_stop_by_signal (w, "button_press_event");

in the handler to prevent the button press(es) from having their usual
effect. Or you may not.

all clear?
