Not easily. The problem is a webcam uses 5Volts, your cars system is 12Volt.
OK, that's not difficult, but finding a screen that works on 12Volt and will accept a USB input is.
Its easier with a CCTV camera and a small 12V ( which is standard) monitor. Just connect them together (output of camera to input of monitor) and draw their power from the reversing lights circuit, then as you select reverse, the camera and monitor will come on automatically. Note, in the UK, this is the only legal way to wire them its illegal to have an active monitor in your line of sight whilst driving. And before you say what about Sat Nav's? They get round the Law by having audio prompts, and people have been prosecuted for causing an accident whilst programming their Sat-Nav.
