Do you mean in the Messages app? If so, yes, you can delete just one. Press and hold on any message in the thread. A little popup menu will appear. Tap "More". Select the message(s) you want to delete by tapping on the circle to the left of the message. Then, tap the trashcan icon at the bottom left of the screen.
