Testing under macOS Catalina with Google Chrome 89.0.4389.90, the following example AppleScript code worked for me, from Script Editor:

tell application "System Events" to ¬
    click button "Add extension" of ¬
        group 1 of ¬
        sheet 1 of ¬
        window 1 of ¬
        process "Google Chrome"

Notes:

I only had one window with two tabs open in Google Chrome with the sheet showing when I ran that code.
