Can a pluging be associated to the ethertype field instead of a tcp or udp port?


Yes:
dissector_add("ethertype", {your Ethernet type value}, {your dissector handle});
I have a dissector that works fine when it is compiled as ethereal built-in dissector but when it is compiled as plugin I get errors in the registering process. 

What errors does it get?
