"logging instrument time as the second-in-command is legal in. FAR 61.51(g) (excerpted below) governs logging of instrument flight time, and allows you to log the time during which you "operate" the aircraft solely by reference to instruments. Note that it says nothing about being the "sole manipulator" of the flight controls, as is the case for PIC time (in some cases) and for recent experience (landings and instrument approaches) (FAR 61.57). It only requires you to "operate" the aircraft. NOTE: This does not mean that you can log approaches when the other pilot is flying. To log approaches, you must be the sole manipulator of the flight controls. "
You are logging the flight condition, It has no barring on whom is operating the aircraft.
If you logg night when you are acting as PNF at night, than you should logg IMC as well. Both are flight conditions.
