I'm going to phrase my question in a certain context (while I do believe generalisations are possible!). Say we have an injectieve Lie group homomorphism $F\colon G\to H$ between Lie groups $G$ and $H$. Then $\operatorname{Im}F$ is an immersed submanifold of $H$. Is it then true that $$ T_e(\operatorname{Im}F)\subset dF_e(T_e G), $$ where and $T_e(\operatorname{Im}F)$ and $T_e G$ denote the tangent space at the identity for $\operatorname{Im}F$ and $G$ respectively?
EDIT:
In addition to the answer provided below, I wanted to make some remarks (just for myself):
When we write $T_{F(x)}(\operatorname{Im}(F))$, we mean in fact $$ d\iota_{F(x)}T_{F(x)}(\operatorname{Im}(F)), $$ where $\iota\colon\operatorname{Im}(F)\to N$ is the inclusion map. Hence, if we have such an $F\circ\gamma$ (as mentioned in the answer), we can restrict it to $\operatorname{Im}(F)$ and retain smoothness, since $\operatorname{Im}(F)$ is an immersed submanifold. Let's denote this restricted map by $\tilde F\circ\gamma$. The differential $d\iota_{F(x)}$ will then send $(\tilde F\circ\gamma)'(0)$ to $(F\circ\gamma)'(0)$, since $$ \iota\circ\tilde F\circ\gamma=F\circ\gamma, $$ and hence indeed $dF_x(T_x M)\subset T_{F(x)}(\operatorname{Im}F)$.
