You're asking two different things. IAC is Acrobat's interface for communication with local applications. The host container, while it could be called interapplicaion communcation, is a different animal.
And Yes, even though hostContainer is not a property of LiveCycle JavaScript, you can reach Acrobat JS from the LiveCycle JS model through "event.target". I haven't personally setup a hostContainer in a LC form. But I know someone who has made it work. Just replace "this" with "event.target", and place the setup code in the "DocReady" event.
