The simplest way to convert a region of buffer text into buttons is
probably `buttonize-region' - see

  (info "(elisp) Making Buttons")

I don't know if there are more high-level tools that handle your use
case are available.  Not so far in the past I needed something similar
(a button toggling between different string values that are/get part of
the resulting text) and wrote it by myself.
