Put the code in a named function, call the function:

function doYes() {
    // some functionality
}

$("#confirmComplete").dialog({
    autoOpen: false,
    resizable: false,
    modal: true,
    async: false,
    position: "top",
    buttons: {
        "Yes": doYes
    },
});

doYes(); // Call the default button action

You could do:

buttons: {
  "Yes": function() {
    $(this).dialog("close");
    return true;
  }
}

You could also have a No button that closes dialog and return false;

Based on the true/false returned, you can take further actions.
