Yes, there is in SIP if the SIP user agents support it. But no, Asterisk
will not forward the SIP messages between the SIP user agents. Remember,
Asterisk is not a SIP proxy.

There's some work on creating a multiprotocol solution for instant
messaging within Asterisk, but it will not be in the coming v1.2.
