Is it possible to use 3D slicer with ultrasound images? Or to do a motion capture (movie) and reconstruct from there?

Operating system:  
Slicer version:  
Expected behavior:  
Actual behavior:

Yes, you can record position-tracked freehand ultrasound sequences in Slicer and reconstruct a 3D volume from it.

See for example this real-time AI-driven automatic spine segmentation combined with live volume reconstruction:
