I've created an iOS app that supports multiple resolutions and I'd like to submit it to the Mac App store. Can I submit the IPA to the Mac App store?

More info: I have an iOS account that I paid $99 for. Do I also have to buy another account? I'm not using XCode.

No. OS X does not have UIKit as a native framework, so it simply won't run. You could look into The Chameleon Project from The IconFactory, which attempts to create a UIKit API compatible framework for the desktop.

If you manage to get your application into an OS X ready state, you'll need a Mac Developer account to submit it to the Mac App Store. Signup is basically identical to the signup for an iOS account, and costs the same. See developer.apple.com for more.
