Hi,

Is "I want to see you in the camera" correct? I mean to say "through the video call".

It's not really 'correct', no, but I can imagine someone saying it quite naturally.

For a video call, I'd use "I'd like to see you on [the] screen".

Perhaps "Can you turn on the camera/webcam? I'd like to see you."
