My understanding is no. [link]

The "IMAX" version of Star Trek underwent some sort of digital remastering for the larger screen, and some claim the experience is noticeably better than the regular screen version, but no, there was no native IMAX-size, -resolution, or -ratio recording at any point in the movie.

I saw the IMAX version and thought it was quite great, but part of that could just be that it was in a newer theater with really awesome sound and a slightly bigger screen. Haven't seen the regular version to compare it to, so I'm not sure it would necessarily be worth it to everyone.
