It's not possible to do this with the alert.

What could be done is to add an Installer plugin that would check for
these requirements and either automatically jump to the next step or
display the incompatibility issue and display a clickable link.

It should not be forgotten that Installer Plugin would not be "run"
during a command line installation so this would also require to add
either a pre-installation scrip to cancel the installation when the
conditions are not met or add a JavaScript requirement that would
check for the OS requirement and at the same time check for the
COMMAND_LINE_INSTALL env var.
