Iptables can not translate from one protocol to another. The closest thing you could do is using something like redsocks. [1] With iptables you can redirect packages based on their destination IP, destination port, linux user account, and or process/session id. Redsocks accepts them and can forward them to another http or socks proxy. But what's the point? It's a real hack. A clean solution would be to add http proxy support to Tor [2] or to add socks support to the applications. Torsocks can be used as a hack.
