What exactly are you trying to achieve? The main goal of a Captcha is to 
turn away bots not to enhance the protection of the credentials.

BTW, the standard BE form does not send the password in plain text, but 
you you can of course use SSL for an extra layer of protection.

If you want to write some code of your own, you can use the 
authentication API of TYPO3. Eg you could try to write a connector to a 
commercial one-time-password scheme.
