Yes
There is an image that has just been posted on Twitter of an event happen locally now. I can't get out to photograph it myself.

Are there any circumstances in which I can use that image on my website?
 
This may be a daft question but what constitutes permission?

Does it need to be some formal document?
 
No, but I'd say you'd need to ask (and be clear what you want to use it for) and s/he needs to say yes. Best done in writing.

Possible exception would be if the pic has been released under a Creative Commons license. Read up on this then explore the photo licensing.
