Is there any form of basic support of Cinemachine? Or any example of Camera switching somewhere?

There is currently no support for cinemachine.
Cameras can be switched be either disabling / enabling them (you can see an example at Needle Engine Samples in the multi scene sample) or by calling this.context.setCurrentCamera with the camea you want to set active
Do I understand that, unlike in Unity, there’s no overhead of having several cameras active at a time ?

Only one camera is by default used for rendering per frame so its no problem
And when you call setCurrentCamera its just added to a stack where only the topmost camera is used (with that you can just remove your last camera added and it will automatically switch back to the camera that was previously active)
That being said: having multiple cameras and rendering to rendertargets is of course also possible but you have to make the render calls yourself in that case. An example can be found in the samples repository currently in Misc-scripting i think
Is “needle-engine-samples\assets\Runtime\Stencil Portals\Stencil Portals.unity” an example of this?

No, that is just one camera but using stencil masks to create the portal effect (effectively masking multiple overlaying scenes)
