Is it possible to hook +USE using engine?

No.

The better question is why do you need to do it exactly with engine?

If you can hook "+use" which is client side ...

You can catch only if the button is pressed.

Well lesson #1, don't worry too much about the module that does the work, be more concerned about which module does it better/more efficiently.

Why not use this? It can be used to detect when hold is first pressed, use held, use released. If you do need to capture more than 1 of these actions, cache the value in a variable instead of re-calling the natives.

PHP Code:

#include <amxmodx>
#include <fakemeta>

public plugin_init() 
{
    register_forward( FM_CmdStart , "FwdCmdStart" );
}

public FwdCmdStart( id , uc_handle , seed )
{
    if ( ( get_uc( uc_handle , UC_Buttons ) & IN_USE ) && !( pev( id , pev_oldbuttons ) & IN_USE ) )
    {
        //Use first pressed
    }
 
    if ( ( get_uc( uc_handle , UC_Buttons ) & IN_USE ) && ( pev( id , pev_oldbuttons ) & IN_USE ) )
    {
        //Use held
    }
   
    if ( !( get_uc( uc_handle , UC_Buttons ) & IN_USE ) && ( pev( id , pev_oldbuttons ) & IN_USE ) )
    {
        //Use released
    }

    return FMRES_IGNORED;
}
