Does Netscape APIs in WebKit have similar APIs like NPN_PluginThreadAsyncCall (refer to http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/NPN_PluginThreadAsyncCall) in Gecko SDK in Mozilla?

No.

Is this in shipping versions of Firefox? I had the impression this was just invented and was planned for a future version.
Will a new thread pawned from plugin main thread be able to invoke any JavaScript methods in browser?


This may work, but has not been extensively tested. So it's probably not a good idea to use this in production code, but it's something you could experiment with.

The JavaScript engine has support for use from multiple threads because of its use in proxy auto-configuration files.
