Yes, it is possible to have it open in a new window, and this is provided via the link creation tool.
The “Target” option allows you to do this with the _blank action.
In the window displayed, if you choose “New window (_blank)” in the Target tab, LimeSurvey will automatically add the HTML attribute target="_blank" to your link.
Specifically:
New window (_blank) → opens the link in a new tab or a new window (depending on the browser and its settings).
