You'll need mail form support (provided by either you web host, or a
third-party) to do this. However before I continue, are you sure you want
it to be sent when the radio buttons are clicked?* People are in the habit
of changing their minds...

That's extremely bad user-interface design. People don't expect clicking a
radio button (or a checkbox, or a select-box entry, etc.) to initiate an
*irreversible* action like sending mail or going to a new page. It's a
very bad idea to make familiar user-interface elements behave in an
unfamiliar way.
