Is it possible to install inotify extension on normal mercurial? Isit extension, or patch?

>From the looks if it you will have to install the python-inotify python binding, which WILL require compilation.  this is not apart of hg and not an extension to hg, just inotify bindings for python itself.

Then you will have to patch hg with the inotify patch.

Whether this patch works on 0.9.3 or depends on hg/hg-stable i dont know. you could try and/or maybe the author can respond to this thread.
