You can record live video from the built-in iSight camera that is standard in most macs (in fact, all but the Mac Pro and Mini). From other cameras, I doubt it. Of course, you can record with Quicktime Player and use the recorded video inside FCP X. But beware, many webcams have very low quality, low frame rate and size, so don't expect to get great video.
