The processes for a volcanic eruption are such that, unless it was already really close to erupting on its own, even a surface detonation would not trigger an eruption. If you were to drill down and do a subterranean detonation of the nuke, unless it was ready to erupt on its own, the worst you are likely to get is some released gas.
