Combination of Pushbutton and Edit Text.

I was trying to make a Crossword Puzzle Program thing. If I'm going to click the edittext then the question will pop out inside that window(if possible). So, Is it possible to create a function of pushbutton in the edittext? And How?

Clicking on the uicontrol('Style', 'edit') will activate any ButtonDownFcn property it may have.

Are you certain that you want to be creating an array of edit controls? Perhaps it would make more sense to create a uitable() ?

In creating uitable() can I block the specific box from being clickable and editable? I think using uicontrol() in edit text is more easier to implement since I need the function that if I click(During) that box then there will be a pop out message in a static box(Opposite from callback).

In the uitable, set everything to be not editable. Use the SelectionChangedFcn to detect clicking in a particular box. You can use that to pop up a clue. You can use KeyPressFcn to detect typing even for locations that are not editable, and you can decide whether to act on the key or not.
