Yes as @NateDhaliwal said if you’re not self hosted you cannot install plugins Hosted plans tiers have listings for what plugins they come with pre installed for use. That being said you can disable(not use( plugins within your plan

And if you want to be able to install plugins you need to be self-hosted and have an admin account with server root access.
