Q: Can this camera be installed inside an outdoor light fixture?
A: Yes, you can install it inside an outdoor light fixture.

Q: Will this fit into a can light on the front porch?
A: It would depend greatly on how big your recessed lighting fixture is. These bulb/cameras are much bigger than a conventional bulb- approximately twice as long I would estimate. So, it will most likely screw in the fixture- but whether it hangs too low may be an issue.
