As far as I know you can't (but I can be proven wrong).
You may try to define a class to solve this (not tested):

####
class say_hello:
     def __init__(self, text):
         self.text=text
     def __call__(self)
         print 'Hello!'
         print self.text

root = Tk()
button1 = Button(root, text='Button 1', command=say_hello('Button 1'))
button1.pack()
button2 = Button(root, text='Button 2', command=say_hello('Button 2'))
button2.pack()
root.mainloop()
