The way you presented it, with the function defined inside the macro
handler, it should just work - you might wanna read up on JavaScript's
scoping rules and closures.

Assuming your code looks a little different than your example, you have
a variety of options - e.g. caching data on the respective DOM element:

config.macros.foo = {
    locale: {
        btnLabel: "Foo",
        btnTooltip: "lorem ipsum"
    },

    handler: function(place, macroName, params, wikifier,
            paramString, tiddler) {
        var btn = createTiddlyButton(place, this.locale.btnLabel,
            this.locale.btnTooltip, this.onClick,
            null, null, null, null);
        // use the DOM element to cache data
        btn.setAttribute("myTitle", tiddler.title);
        // ... optionally using jQuery
        jQuery(btn).data("myTiddler", tiddler);
    },
    onClick: function(ev) {
        var e = ev || window.event;
        var btn = resolveTarget(e);
        // retrieve cached data
        var title = btn.getATtribute("myTitle");
        var tiddler = jQuery(btn).data("myTiddler");
        // ...
    }
};

There are plenty of examples of this in the the TiddlyWiki core code, as
well as in various plugins.

HTH.
