"I've been trying to change the opacity of the quick menu similarly to how it's done with the textbox, but despite using different codes and ideas, nothing seems to work. Is it possible to do this?"

Neither the quick menu, nor its buttons, have a background by default. Therefore, without firstly giving them one, you'll obviously not be able to change their opacity.

I assume you mean the opacity of the text? Since, as mentioned, it has no background by default.
In case you want to edit the opacity of the text, simply go to the following line in gui.rpy:

define gui.idle_small_color = '#aaaaaa30'

I added the 30, that's the transparency. rrggbbaa

I meant creating a slider for the player to select their preferred opacity for the quick menu, but from what you're saying, I guess that's not possible

If you want to create a bar for it, create a bar (Documentation here:

)
where it takes min and max value of 0 to 100, then put a -1 and cast it as a string. If -1, return an empty string, else return the string of the int (00 to 99) and attach it to gui.idle_small_color so it'll be dynamic.

And if the quick menu were an imagebutton, could it also be given opacity?

Yes, but you can also just put an image with opacity
