Yes it is, due to the force of the plate sliding by each other.

Tha Haitian Earthquake was caused by the transform boundary between the Caribbean and the North American plates. Please see the related question for mor information about the Haitian Earthquake.
The Kamchatka earthquake was on the Pacific plate.
a conservative one
No it was a destructive plate boundary.

a constructive plate boundary is where two plates move apart from eachother forming a gap which allows magma to rise and that leads to a earthquake.

Haiti is located on a transform boundary that separates the Caribbean plate and the North American plate.
a transform boundary is when two plates scrape past each other with an effect of a earthquake
Haiti is located near the northern boundary of the Caribbean plate, close to where it meets the North American plate. Please see the related question.
