The RoboRio has two USB type A ports on it, could you not just use two USB webcams? Or are you looking to use more than 2 cameras?

To answer your specific question though, IP cameras are allowed (Implied per R60), but you may need to add a separate Ethernet switch to be able to connect more than one to the robot at a time. Also keep in mind bandwidth restrictions if you plan to have multiple cameras running simultaneously. We've had problems running even one camera at a decent framerate with the fields bandwidth limitations in place.
