Hi Cspr,

In a macro, I think there is no possibility to scroll the image, so  
you can't  zoom in at the mouse position.

In a plugin you can do it:
The plugin cald register as MouseListener of the ImageCanvas. On a  
mouse click, it cald call the zoomIn method of the ImageCanvas.
Have a look at the WindowManager (for determining the foreground  
window), ImagePlus, ImageWindow and ImageCanvas classes.
