Can I use my digital camera as a web cam?

I have a golf analysis video program. Goes on computer, you hook a video cam up to it, you can then watch in slo mo, draw lines, etc.

My little digital camera (Nikon Coolpix S220) can take and record video. I'm trying to get it to work, but it won't. When I plug the camera into the computer, it shuts down/closes the camera lens and goes into a "download pictures" mode.

So, I think, I'm trying to use the Nikon as a "webcam"? (Not sure if that is the right terminology).

Is this possible?
