Sadly not, I’ve always wondered why this hasn’t been in the configuration. You have two choices, you can either extend Mage_Checkout_Block_Cart to apply logic to determine what URL to use or you can set the the URL in the template.

<?php $this->setContinueShoppingUrl('http://URL.com'); ?>

<div class="page-title">
    <h1><?php echo $this->__('Shopping Cart is Empty') ?></h1>
</div>
<div class="cart-empty">
    <?php echo $this->getMessagesBlock()->getGroupedHtml() ?>
    <p><?php echo $this->__('You have no items in your shopping cart.') ?></p>
    <p><?php echo $this->__('Click <a href="%s">here</a> to continue shopping.', $this->getContinueShoppingUrl()) ?></p>
</div>

However, if you’re going to set it in the template, you might as well just remove change <?php echo $this->__('Click <a href="%s">here</a> to continue shopping.', $this->getContinueShoppingUrl()) ?> to <?php echo $this->__('Click <a href="http://URL.COM">here</a> to continue shopping.') ?>
