What do you mean by "link two .fig windows" exactly? Do you mean you want to pass data from one figure to another via a pushbutton? Please provide a very descriptive example of exactly what you want to do.

uicontrol('styl','push','call','figure(''name'',''new Figure'');close(gcbf)')
If you don't use callback strings, create the second figure in the callback to the pushbutton, then call: close(gcbf)

The handle structure for GUI created with GUIDE are stored in the figure object for the main GUI menu.
gui1fig = open('FirstGui.fig');
gui2fig = open('SecondGui.fig');
Then if the first GUI needs to reference a handle that exists in the second GUI,
handles2 = getappdata(gui2fig);
and access handles2.TheHandleName
If need be, the second handles structure can be updated from the first GUI by using
setappdata(gui2fig, handles2)

Reverse parse. The main GUI is a figure. Figures have a number of properties, one of which is ApplicationData. GUIDE stores the "handles" structure for the GUI in that property of the figure. Given the figure number, you can access that handles structure by using getappdata() with the figure number. The figure number that a .fig was opened as will be returned by the open() call.
Thus, my answer about handles and GUIDE was intended to be a recipe for how to proceed; the only part that was missing was information on how to communicate the figure numbers to the code, which is something there are multiple ways to do.

@Fiboehh don't say those bad things about yourself, everybody needs time to learn, it often takes months or even years (my ongoing process), Matt Fig and Walter Roberson will guide you, good luck.

when I press on push button it closes current gui and display the image in that gui. Now I want to create one more push button in that display window where image is being displayed.

newfig = figure();
newax = axes('Parent', newfig);
imshow(YourImageArray, 'Parent', newax);
axis(newax, 'image', 'tight');
