You mean your plaintext message the yes you can but you have to separate it with an x when you put letters in pairs, but in a key no.

Why do some block cipher modes of operation only use encryption while others use both encryption and decryption?

Some block cipher modes of operation only use encryption because the input is set to some initialization vector and the leftmost bits of the output of the encryption function are XORed with the first segment of plain text p1 to produce the first unit of cipher text C1 and it is transmitted. While in decryption, the cipher text is XORed with the output of the encryption function to produce the plain text.

Algorithm for hill cipher?

Hill Cipher is a cryptographic algorithm to encrypt and decrypt an alphabetic text. In this cipher, each letter is represented by a number (eg. A = 0, B = 1, C = 2). To encrypt a message, each block of n letters (considered as an n -component vector) is multiplied by an invertible n × n matrix, against modulus 26.
