Not sure what you mean by forums on IRC, but yes there are some project related channels to discuss via XMPP. You can also join any IRC channel quite easily via the great XMPP-IRC Biboumi gateway (It is basically a IRC bouncer you connect to with an XMPP client).

The Libervia project has also implemented actual web forums utilizing XMPP, but it is still quite basic tbh.
