Most important thing here is to declare your tool variable as global


global unnamedRollout
-- close tool if is alreday opened
try(destroyDialog unnamedRollout)catch()

or in one line with "::"


try(destroyDialog ::unnamedRollout)catch()

Now your code need to look like this

try(destroyDialog ::unnamedRollout)catch()
rollout unnamedRollout "Untitled" width:162 height:300
(
button btn5 "messagebox" pos:[28,28] width:90 height:30
button btn6 "accesor" pos:[36,79] width:84 height:38
on btn5 pressed do
(
messagebox "it work"
)
on btn6 pressed do
(
unnamedRollout.btn5.pressed() -- press the button
)
)
createdialog unnamedRollout 162 300 10 110 style:#(#style_titlebar, #style_sysmenu, #style_toolwindow)
