You can do this using iimage; add the following to your .emacs:

;;iimage
(require 'iimage)
(setq iimage-mode-image-search-path (expand-file-name "~/"))
;;Match org file: links
(add-to-list 'iimage-mode-image-regex-alist
	     (cons (concat "\\[\\[file:\\(~?" iimage-mode-image-filename-regex
			   "\\)\\]")  1))
(define-key org-mode-map [(control c) ?i] 'iimage-mode)

You can then toggle inline display of images in an org buffer using C-c i.
