You could finagle such a thing on the _server_ (where ColdFusion is running) but not on the _client_ - ColdFusion isn't there to do anything! To do this on the client you would need some thing "active" and trusted: a Signed Java Applet, an ActiveX control or a Flash movie that was given permission to use the camera (the latter is probably the simplest option overall unless you find something off the shelf). There are other options... but those three cover the broadest range of possibility.
