Yes, the Services module has an API, details of which you can find in the module files. You can use that API to provide CRUD for anything at all. See Creating a resource for Services 3.x for a full module example.
Since private messages are entities, you might also look to the Services Entity API module for inspiration (or, it you're particularly lucky, a pre-built solution, depends what you need, and whether you can use an alpha release):
This module provides support for all Entity API entity types to Services. All entity types get a standard resource, similar to what Services provides for code entity types such as nodes.

I'm not familiar with that module, sorry. If it uses the entity API you should be able to use the module I linked to, if not it'll probably need something custom written for it (someone may have already started something in a sandbox module, it's worth searching around. "drupal [module-name] services integration" is usually a good search term)– Clive ♦Sep 27, 2015 at 12:19
