Call a JS function in Wordpress

Question

Can I call a JavaScript function in Wordpress like this?

<input type="button" value="" class="domain_submit" onclick="callGetDomain();">

Where should I put my JavaScript? at footer.php? or what would be the proper way to achieve something like this?

I put my script in footer.php, then I called the function like as I mentioned but no use?

You shouldn't put your script anywhere, you should include it with wp_enqueue_script and you should use proper event listeners. — adeneo

Yes you can use onclick="callGetDomain();" and for the function definition, use a separate js file and include that file using wp_enqueue_script(), which is the proper way to call js files in Wordpress. Check this
