Of course it's possible (Jabber with GPG or OTR encryption plus Tor) - I'm using it. And you can use OTR (deniable) if you have a personal email address. One hint for the latter, it's possible to use a freemailer like Gmail and without giving Google your personal data.

Btw. it doesn't matter for Tor which data you're transmitting - it can be a SSH session, a GPG or OTR encrypted XMPP transmission etc. pp.

Some further information, because I see some misconception in your saying:

OTR: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-the-Record_Messaging
GPG: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Privacy_Guard
XMPP: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xmpp
SSH via Tor: http://themostboringblogintheworld.w...n00b-approved/
Tor: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tor_(anonymity_network)

etc.
