If you want someone to help you, you should provide more details. Which version of Kopete you are using, with which protocol you want to use your webcam, what kind of webcam you own, which module you are using, if your webcam is working with other applications and so on.
If you do so, it will be much more likely that someone can help you.
And to answer your first question: No, you do not need a special plugin in order to use your webcam with kopete, all you need is a working webcam and a recent version of Kopete (version 0.12 would be best).
