Yes, but the IMC I have in mind is mostly low visibility. Fog, mist,
haze, that sort of thing. Flying into a big and angry cloud isn't a
good idea no matter what type of rating you and your aircraft have.

Flying into fog is an even worse idea, given that fog is usually pretty
close to the terrain.

OTOH, a good deal of IMC requires that you fly into the clouds, many of
which are turbulent, though I wouldn't call them "big and angry" as in
cumulo nimbus, and most situations where one goes from VMC to IMC will put
you in the clouds.
