By default, the TW core doesn't provide a way to do that.  However,
this plugin:
   http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#AutoTaggerPlugin
may be useful, depending upon what you are trying to accomplish.

AutoTaggerPlugin has various options to automatically add tags to a
tiddler whenever you edit it.  One option is to 'scan tiddler content
for matching tags': if you have already used a tag of "foo" on some
tiddler(s) and then you enter the word "foo" within the content of
some other tiddler, when you press 'done', that tiddler will
automatically get "foo" added as a tag.

Of course, it's not always desirable to automatically scan-and-tag
*every* tiddler in a document.  For example, if a tiddler makes
mention of 'systemConfig' in the text, but is  *not* actually a plugin
tiddler (e.g., plugin documentation), and this tiddler were to be
automatically tagged with 'systemConfig', it would almost certainly
cause an error the next time you load the document (because the TW
core will attempt to invoke that tiddler as program code during
startup).

In order to address this, the plugin requires that you indicate when
the scan-and-tag handling should be applied to a given tiddler by
manually tagging that tiddler with "auto".  From then on, each time
that tiddler is edited, the scan-and-tag action will be performed.  If
you want to prevent further scanning, you can simply remove the 'auto'
tag before pressing 'done'.

One important note: scan-and-tag handling only works with text that
matches *existing* tags.  One way to address this limitation is to pre-
define a separate tiddler (e.g., [[MyTags]]) that you manually tag
with *all* the tags that you are using in your document.  In that way,
all the desired tags will already exist by the time you are creating/
editing other tiddlers tagged with "auto".
