VST effects are supported by Audacity on OS X and GNU/Linux, but relatively few are available on Mac (due to Apple's competing Audio Units technology) and even fewer on Linux.
On GNU/Linux, 32-bit systems will have 32-bit versions of Audacity which won't see 64-bit VST plug-ins. 64-bit systems will have 64-bit versions of Audacity which will see 64-bit VST plug-ins but won't see 32-bit plug-ins.
Re: dll plugin in Linux
VST plug-ins for Linux must be made for Linux. VST plug-ins built for Windows only work on Windows. It's very unusual to find VSTs built for Linux, they are very rare, but there are loads of LADSPA and LV2 plug-ins, and Audacity's own "Nyquist" plug-ins are fully cross-platform.
