Yes, it can.  Note that, if you are using QuickTime 3.0 or later you can use
the "sys" format not only to import PICT, but basically any image format
QuickTime supports (i.e. those the QuickTime PictureViewer application will
display as well).
I think QuickTime 3.0 and later support TIFF and JPEG, so you should be able
to import these formats as "sys" image types.
