Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2011 Essentials looks like a good option to go in our scenario. But IIS is an requirement. Can the Essentials edition run IIS?

Yes, all the SBS editions have included IIS.

I would have thought that being SBS, IIS was already a part of the core. Seeing as it's designed to run Remote Web Workplace and OWA. So I would say yes.
