Yes, you can do that.  Set the parameter:

  $use_imap_tls = true;

in the /etc/squirrelmail/config.php file, and as long as you are
running PHP 4.3 or later and have the openssl extension loaded in
/etc/php.ini it will do STARTTLS when communicating with the IMAP
server.  This is in SquirrelMail 1.4.1, I think this capability was
added in 1.4.0.

You can also set

  $use_smtp_tls = true;

for its connections to the SMTP server.
