Skype on the iPhone does not, and only very recent desktop versions of Skype do.
is it possible to use N900 skype video chat with someone who has Iphone4?
Your only hope is that Skype releases a new revision of Skype for iPhone that supports H.264. The iPhone already uses H.264 for Facetime, so it's not a hardware limitation on the iPhone side. And an updated, more capable version of Skype for iPhone is infinitely more likely than any new version of Skype for Maemo 5.

Video calling Skype/N900 <-> Skype/iPhone seems to work now.
I tested it with an iPod Touch (latest gen). Version number of the Skype app is 3.0.1
