To create links in an image use image map tags.
http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_map.asp

If you would like to use a graphical environment to generate your html you
can use the gimp which is free and open source software which works on
Windows Mac and Linux. Here is a link to a youtube video explaining the
process of creating the html necessary.

Once you've created your map code, make sure you have permissions
configured in joomla to allow the use of map tags. Then use the view source
link on your joomla wysiwyg editor to insert the appropriate code into your
joomla article.
