Is there a way to ask the user for text input through the Web surface? For example, when the user clicks on a button, I would like to show a dialog that asks the user to fill in some input before proceeding on with the action.
Sure, there are multiple ways of doing this.
One that may be suitable is that you set up a dedicated page for inputting that text. This page is then your "dialog".
When the input is needed you go to that page. On the page you have a button saying that input is needed and what it is for. Also you want a button showing the entered text and keyboard to enter the text. You can use the generic-dataentry module for this. Once the user has entered the text heneeds to confirm it by pressing a enter button. With that button you can copy over the text to a custom variable and close the page (going back to last page or proceeding to wherever you like) and you can then use the variable in the action where it is needed.
