Can anyone tell me if this is possible in InDesign natively, or am I forced to use a third party plugin?

CPING had the same question I've been trying to answer -- I couldn't follow the thread to the replies though. Did anyone have an idea how to automatically insert numbers in table or figure titles? InDesign does the job for footnotes, so I keep thinking it must be there somewhere.

I do not believe any of the InDesign versions do this. I think FrameMaker does it. Probably a javascript could be written to do it and one may exist.

Adobe has a feature request link under the Contact button and they might well add it to an upcoming version if people request it and explain how they want it to work and why they need it.
