Sure it is. All parts of a Smalltalk program are present as objects that can be manipulated by sending them messages. Classes, methods, variable bindings, closures, stack frames, even individual messages are objects.

As a practical matter, methods also have a textual representation, but that's not strictly necessary. Ten or fifteen years ago, the Squeak method browser had a mode where you could write Smalltalk code using tiles, kind of like in Etoys, no parsing necessary. That was a hassle to use, though, so people stuck with writing methods using text.

By the way, Lisp has the same sort of "impurity". S-expressions are very simple, but they are syntax. It's surely possible to create a tool that would let one construct cons cells in memory directly, but that would be a hassle. Instead we use parentheses.

The 'iconicity' part of homoiconicity refers to the textual representation.
