If I want to use release plugin with CVS, do I also declare maven-scm-plugin and set it up for my CVS environment ? The release plugin is using maven-scm-providers internally and there is no way to set up ssh passphrase for instance.

Both those plugins and their Mojos are using the scm providers but only scm plugin has options to set up the SCM environment in detail. But release plugin doesn't refer to maven-scm-plugin in any way, so that the scm-plugin settings are not utilized in release plugin.

Or is the the convention for release plugin just using userName & password and avoid using stuff like ssh private/public key authorization via passphrase?

Look at Maven release plugin perform goal configuration

It does have username and password parameters
