Since the bone itself doesn't care what you bind to it, I think it should be possible...

I showed some examples about that in this talk:

Very very thanks Slowtiger and Selgin
for giving details

The doubt is that When use bones as control levers we reduce its strength to zero then manually create vector morph by point animation. But in the case of images
we cant deform and image as we do in vectors with point animation. This is my doubt. With a bone with zero strenghth how we can manipulate /warp an image
I think my doubt is clear to you

Smart bones can control other bones that do have strength.
