Do you want to monitor the /dev/video* on the fly? Or are they available at startup?
Via a shell-script you can do something like:
#!/bin/sh
if [ -e /dev/video0 ]; then
gst-launch1.0 ................ &
fi

if [ -e /dev/video1 ]; then
gst-launch1.0 ................ &
fi
 
.....
Or you create an application to detect the /dev/video* and start a gstreamer pipeline accordingly
