No, there are [12 (fixed) plugins](https://www.communiteq.com/discoursehosting/faq/#plugins) on the starter plan.

On the Professional plan, you get to install 5 extra plugins of your choice made by Communiteq, Discourse or Pavilion. On the Business plan you get up to 10 plugins made by anyone (as long as they’re written well). If you want more, you contact us and we discuss your needs.
