That is not the case. Firefox extensions do rely on XUL a lot, but Firebug extensions primarily leverage the Firebug API and domplate template system which is pure JS/HTML/CSS.

I believe the goal for Firebug is to move towards dynamically loadable pure JS/HTML/CSS extensions possibly conforming to CommonJS and/or Jetpacks.

This kind of setup makes Firebug extensions an ideal candidate to run in other browsers as well.
