You could actually do that through the Facebook.com web interface much longer than you could through the FB mobile app. Of course, you can still do it on the web, though it's a separate domain (just as, on mobile, it's a separate app.)
But since they really want you to use the Messenger mobile app, to use the web interface on mobile you have to use "Request desktop site".
