If a friend sends to me an address in a SMS or IMessage, for example "I am at 123 Main St" can I send that to the Map app to get directions there?

If the messages are grey then they are being received. The colour doesn't change on the type they use. However if you use iMessage then the message back will be iMessage unless it stats above it that it is a message, as both users need to have iMessage enabled at the same time to use the feature, otherwise an SMS message is sent.
If you scroll up in the message history you will see what the last type of message used was. There will be a line break with iMessage or Message written in it. All messages after that point are dove via this method, until a new break is made.
The MMS switch only disables MMS, not iMessages with picture attachments. So you can turn the MMS switch off to get the behaviour you desire.

The iOS will hyperlink things such as addresses, and phone numbers, in things such as emails. If it doesn't do that, it is simple to tap and hold the address, copy it, and paste it into maps.
