It is possible. On your iPhone, open Settings ➡️ General ➡️ Language & Region ➡️ Measurement System: Set this to Metric.

NOTE: When you change this setting to Metric, then the change will be made system-wide across your device, so apps like Measure and Weather may show different units of measurement when you switch. However, temperature (Celsius or Fahrenheit) is adjusted separately system-wide, either via the Weather app or via Settings ➡️ General ➡️ Language & Region ➡️ Temperature.
