No you can't directly use iMessage, you can use the MFMessageComposeViewController to send a SMS. If the system then detects if the other user supports iMessage the SMS will be send via iMessage.

You can't force a message to send via iMessages.

Also there is no support for sending images or videos in a message via the MFMessageComposeViewController. Because MFMessageComposeViewControlleronly support SMS which does not support images or videos.
