NO, it's not possible at this time.

You can buy in-app content like additional levels for games or additional books for ebook readers. You can not use an application to buy another app or song from iTunes but I saw many app linking directly to the store.

If you do this your running app will close (or go to the background) and iTunes on your iOS device will open. I guess it is done very simple with just the right kind of hyperlink since desktop applications and websites can do it too.
