You can only do this in wxWidgets 2.9.1 or greater and can use either a wxBitmapButton or wxButton. To quote from the documentation:

Since version 2.9.1 wxButton supports showing both text and an image (currently only when using wxMSW, wxGTK or wxOSX/Cocoa ports), see SetBitmap() and SetBitmapLabel(), SetBitmapDisabled() methods. In the previous wxWidgets versions this functionality was only available in (the now trivial) wxBitmapButton class which was only capable of showing an image without text.
