On Android, to send a notification all you need to know is GCM id of a device you want to notify. Assuming my user knows the id of another user, he sends a message directly to GCM server, what decreases the load on my server. I don't have experience building iOS apps, so I want to know if the same approach is possible for iOS devices. If my user knows id of another apple device, can he send a request directly to APNS?

Sending a push is just a matter of posting data to apple servers.
You can do it from your server or the device. It's up to you.

Try NWPusher. It contains an iOS demo application that shows how to send push notifications from iOS to iOS.
