In Settings \> Preferences I see that I can change default Bitcoin Explorer to Tor version which will yield .onion addresses. But when clicking on a bitcoin address from inside Bisq it opens the system’s default browser with that address which obviously fails.

Is there any way to set the Tor browser’s executable as the default browser to be used for opening addressess?

Otherwise I don’t see how it’s helpful to set the explorer to its Tor version, this would probably only work in systems which use Tor browser by default such as Tails.

you would indeed need to set tor browser as default one for the whole system, if it’s windows you’re talking about.  
With Windows, you can also use something like Browser Chooser.  
Otherwise instead of clicking active links, just copy url and paste in tor browser.
