Yes, magma can melt iron. Since magma is already extremely hot, and since it is hotter than iron's melting point, magma can melt iron.

What type of rocks can melt into lava or magma?

Igneous rocks, specifically those that are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma, can melt back into lava or magma when subjected to high temperatures and pressure. Additionally, sedimentary rocks can also melt into magma if they are buried deep within the Earth's crust and exposed to extreme heat. Metamorphic rocks, formed under heat and pressure from existing rocks, can similarly melt into magma under sufficient conditions.
