In the following code, I access the top Frame subwidget (advertised by Tk::DialogBox) and then use a scrolling Tk::ROText widget. 

use strict;
use warnings;

use Tk;
use Tk::DialogBox;
use Tk::ROText;

my $mw = MainWindow->new();
my $d = $mw->DialogBox();
my $df = $d->Subwidget(q{top});
my $rt = $df->ScrlROText()->pack;
my $content = join qq{\n} => (0 .. 100);
$rt->insert(end => $content);

$mw->Button(-text => q{Show}, -command => sub { $d->Show })->pack;
$mw->Button(-text => q{Exit}, -command => sub { exit })->pack;

MainLoop;

I use Subwidget() for greater control. The BUGS section of Tk::DialogBox has:

"There is no way of removing a widget once it has been added to the top Frame, unless you access the top subwidget and go through the child widgets."
