Unfortunately this isn't possible.
However there are good tutorials and snippets available for guiding the user, like http://cubiq.org/add-to-home-screen .

Ok thanks. It was the answer i expected, nevertheless I hoped that there was a way to do it. Too bad there isn't. – robind38 Jan 31 '12 at 13:44

No, that has to be done from the browser's UI.
Several web apps show an arrow pointing to the 'add to homescreen' button along with an encouraging message.
