There is no way to do it exactly as you describe. But what you can do  
is this:

1. drop the PDF to create an empty item with an attachment
2. look up the info in Google Scholar using the web group
3. hit the Import button for the item you want to use
4. go to the Library group, and select the item with the PDF attachment
5. drag the PDF from the side pane and drop it on the imported item
6. you can now delete the empty item with the PDF attachment

Or you can:
1. look up the info in Google Scholar using the web group
2. hit the Import button for the item you want to use
3. go to the Library group
4. drop the PDF on the imported item
