Yes of course

if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] > 5.0) {
        // Create the view controller
        TWTweetComposeViewController *twitter = [[TWTweetComposeViewController alloc] init];

        // Optional: set an image, url and initial text
        [twitter addImage:[UIImage imageName:@"YourImage.png"]];
        [twitter setInitialText:@"I created this photo Download http://www.twetter.com"];

        // Show the controller
        [self presentModalViewController:twitter animated:YES];

        // Called when the tweet dialog has been closed
        twitter.completionHandler = ^(TWTweetComposeViewControllerResult result) 
        {
            NSString *title = @"Tweet Status";
            NSString *msg; 

            if (result == TWTweetComposeViewControllerResultCancelled)
                msg = @"Tweet compostion was canceled.";
            else if (result == TWTweetComposeViewControllerResultDone)
                msg = @"Tweet composition completed.";

            // Show alert to see how things went...
            UIAlertView* alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:title message:msg delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"Okay" otherButtonTitles:nil];
            [alertView show];

            // Dismiss the controller
            [self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
        };
    }

Great! But isn't it better to test for class or method availability rather than system version? — Proud Member, Aug 27 '12 at 12:43
actually you have to check system version because iOS 5.0 and up version support twitter framework and below version you have to use some other API like to upload images like twitpic — Hiren, Aug 27 '12 at 12:49
Here's an example for that check: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8248068/is-it-possible-to-check-if-a-user-has-a-twitter-account-in-the-built-in-twitter?rq=1 — Proud Member, Aug 27 '12 at 12:57
