I'd like to say she's *capable* of all kinds of magic, similar to Twilight, but on a much lesser scale. She bests Rainbow by turning a rainbow - a prism of light - into a solid, tangible object and then throwing her around with it, though this could be handwaved with simple telekinesis with the rainbow for added effect.

She then conjures up a small thundercloud - something that only Luna and NMM have been seen to do - and strikes Rainbow in the flank. A much larger cloud is formed when she confronts the Ursa, and the resulting thunderbolt leaves a rather large burn mark on the bear's flank.

Rarity's hair... as mean-spirited as it was, I'd say it's actual magic considering what all she did to it.

Anyway... Yes, she can, but the difference between her magic and Twilight's is how differently the two of them apply it.
