Yes, it is possible to use check marks, as well as any other Unicode character in a List Table. All you need to do is create a user-defined format and then use it with the displayed table. Here is an example of such format:

 

proc format;
   value chmark
      1 = '(*ESC*){unicode "2714"x}'
      other = ' ';
run;

In this code example, "2714"x is hexadecimal unicode value for check mark character .  For more details on how to use various unicode characters in SAS reports, please see my recent blog post How to create checklist tables in SAS® .

 

For colors, you can use Display Rules, similar to this example: Display rules in Crosstabs .

Is the goal to conditionally add those images to cells in the tables?
