I'm trying to build this query
select * from m_orders where year(order_date) = '2010'
the field order_date is a DateTime field. I just don't want to use raw sql queries here. Is it even possible to use e.g. MySQL functions in django quersets?

You can achieve this without using raw SQL. Use the built in __
mechanism instead (see the documentation for more details). Something like this:
MyOrder.objects.filter(order_date__year = 2010)
you can use django's builtin query API for this. no need for any vendor specific code or raw SQL.
it would probably look something like this:
Orders.objects.filter(order_date__year=2010)
