There is no native built in way to do this.
But it is possible in some cases using inline html and css to simulate a button and make it work.
It's very complex and beyond a quick how to in the forum. (sorry)
It would take a few hours of consulting time.

sorry we cannot add files to comments! but here is a google link to a screenshot of some buttons on a form that I made on a clients site. https://photos.app.goo.gl/gsaBr1GnXPg4apws7 .

and I have to go and will not be responding to comments for a few hours!

@Lawrence, if your "Track!" inline button simply opens a URL and passes a column value as a parameter to it, then please consider using a Formula-URL column for such a button. You can set the "Display As" property to "Button" and the "Display Text" to "Track!" for that column.

Thank you @Slava, I did what you suggested. However I was using that as an example, and thinking of a wider application than just a url. In other words the functionality of a Custom Button, with the ability to display the button adjacent to a field on a form, or as @Cooper has done, linked to a group of fields.

Perhaps your new UI has something similar.....?

Keep up the good work - TD support is next level stuff!!
