Yes you can. You need to check out the Address Book documentation for iOS and especially look at the ABPerson reference.

http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/AddressBook/Reference/ABPersonRef_iPhoneOS/Reference/reference.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40007210

Yes you can... this code from the Address Book API

array = [peoplePicker selectedRecords]; 
NSAssert([array count] == 1, @"Picker returned multiple selected records"); 

ABPerson *person = [array objectAtIndex:0];
personImage = [[NSImage alloc] initWithData:[person imageData]]; 
personFirstName = [person valueForProperty:kABFirstNameProperty], personLastName = [person valueForProperty:kABLastNameProperty];
/* ...do something with the image and name... */ [personImage release];

Here is a nice article how to pull pictures depending on the iOS version (pre 4.1 and currently preferred method)
