It is possible, yes. However you'll need to make sure that you have doHTML abilities set for your member group, and enabled for your forums.

Enable for user group:

Go to Manage User Groups, and edit the settings for your group. Scroll down to the bottom of the page, and one of the last few options is Can use [doHTML] tag?. Set this to Yes.

Enable for forum:

Go to Manage Forums, edit the settings for the forum you want to post media in, and find:

Allow use of the [doHTML] tag?
This will allow HTML to be posted and executed


Set to yes.

WARNING: Enabling this will allow someone to post HTML, which could potentially break the page, or execute scripts. Use with caution. If your members don't need to post media, then don't enable doHTML for their group.

Finally, to post media:

[doHTML] Post the codes you need here [/dohtml] <- The BBcode you need to use :) Just paste the code for the media object between those tags, and it should appear if you've enabled this feature for your group and in the forum you're posting in.
