Could we put this another way? Your would like to copy the WikiText for the 
link rather than the rendered link text?

The short answer is no, the full answer is yes, *Many ways.*

Some quick points

   - Edit the tiddler and copy the link wikitext is the current method.
   - Remember such links can be the result of a list so the actual wiki 
   text link never exists until it is rendered as html (There may not be any 
   deep content to copy)
   - There are browser extensions that allow you to copy a link as html and 
   you can paste it into your destination tiddler eg FireFox "Text Linky Tool".

      text](https://grantwinney.com/cool-markdown-tricks-for-github/)
      - Perhaps we could make one that respects TiddlyWiki Text  eg [[5 
      Markdown Tricks for GitHub e.g. colored 
      text|https://grantwinney.com/cool-markdown-tricks-for-github/]]
   - You can use the browser inspect on a link (Inspect element) and copy 
   the "outer HTML" and past it into your tiddler and elsewhere (FireFox)

"tc-tiddlylink-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">5

   - If you have advanced knowledge you could craft a copy to clipboard 
   button that contains the wiki text, even build it into a macro.
   - You could get really fancy and extract links from a tiddler and 
   display them in a footnote including a copy to clipboard of that links wiki 
   text (or html)

Another firefox plugin copies this to the clipboard
