Apple doesn't allow browsers on iOS to use a different rendering engine than the one used in Safari. That means that the folks who create add-ons for Firefox have create a new version for iOS (not just Firefox). If there's one for Safari, it might work on Firefox for iOS. Installing them is still done outside of Mozilla Firefox.

As for whether or not it's needed on iOS. I'm not sure why you think it's needed on the desktop version. :)
