Can PuTTY open SSH link similar to Terminal for Macintosh?
PuTTY unfortunately does not associate itself with the ssh://
URLs.
You can associate an application with a protocol manually. See the MSDN article Registering an Application to a URI Scheme.
Basically you add a registry key like:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ssh]
@="URL: SSH Protocol"
"URL Protocol"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ssh\DefaultIcon]
@="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\PuTTY\\PuTTY.exe\",0"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ssh\shell]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ssh\shell\open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ssh\shell\open\command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\PuTTY\\PuTTY.exe\""
Though the above passes a whole URL to the PuTTY command-line. And PuTTY does not understand the ssh://
prefix. So you would have to add a wrapper script that strips the ssh://
and passes only a user and a host to PuTTY.
For that see:

I do not know 1Password, but a similar application KeePass can parse the URL and pass only its certain parts to the application. So it can strip the ssh://
for you.
See KeePass override rules.
On Windows, WinSCP 5.9 and newer registers itself to handle the ssh://
URL and opens the session specified by the URL in PuTTY.
