Yes, it is possible, but I wouldn't recommend it. You'd have to run through the UIAlertView's subviews until you find one that is of the right class, I would assume UIButton, and add your UIImageView on top like this:

for (UIView *v in [myAlertView subviews]) {
    if ([v isKindOfClass:[UIButton class]]) {
        //IF I AM THE RIGHT BUTTON
            [v addSubview:myUIImageView];
    }
}

To determine the correct button, you might initially give it some odd text like "foobar5" and test each button to see if that is its text, and if so, remove the text and add the UIImageView.

You can use unicode characters, which are rendered as icons. I described it here: Adding Images to UIActionSheet buttons as in UIDocumentInteractionController
