after posting this thread I asked this question to my other friends and one of them told that it is possible by add() method
I tried it and it works

import java.awt.*;
  import javax.swing.*;
 
public class ButtonInTextField extends JFrame
{
    JTextField tekst;
    JButton knopka;
    Container c;
 
    public ButtonInTextField()
    {
     c = getContentPane();
     c.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
 
     tekst = new JTextField (10);
     knopka = new JButton("");
     //tekst.setHorizontalAlignment(15);
     //tekst.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
     tekst.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
     tekst.add(knopka,BorderLayout.EAST);
 
     c.add(tekst);
 
     setSize( 300, 200 );
     setVisible( true );
    }
 
    public static void main( String args[] )
     {
        ButtonInTextField rustiX = new ButtonInTextField();
        rustiX.setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
     }
}

so I think this will helpful to you too
