No, Firefox does not support WebP and it is currently not planned to add support.

There's an implementation bug here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=webp

And some more explanation why this bug is currently won'tfixed, here: http://muizelaar.blogspot.com/2011/04/webp.html

Hope this helps!
