Can current customers pay monthly for an expensive phone?

My dad is the one who is a customer at at&t and my phone is part of the plan that he pays for, so it's under his name. I wanted to get a new phone-switching from android to iphone-and I was looking through at&t online and saw that some can be paid monthly such as $15 per month. Are those phones only for new customers or can current customers do the monthly payment?

Any postpaid customer can buy a phone on a payment plan but phone deals are only for new lines. Existing lines will pay full retail price for whatever phone they select.
