Well, in theory you can of course easily use anything that can be linked
from C. So typically, if language X can produce a dll or lib that can be
linked into using C conventions then you are pretty much set up. But...
the question in this case is - what do you want *to do*?

Plugins are typically used when:

1. Performance is critical (C being faster for low level stuff when you
know what to do with your bits and bytes)
2. There is a library written in C (or similar) you want to hook into.
3. You want to make calls into the OS, which typically also means
interfacing with C libraries - so it is actually the same reason as #2
above.

Now... why would you then want to use Python? And why do you want to
make a plugin? If you explain that then we can answer ypu better. :)
