I had a quick look around but didn't see any devices that could both receive 2.4GHz analogue video signal and convert the signal to a digital format to be passed via USB.

As I said earlier, you might get away with using a generic 2.4GHz analogue video receiver if the camera just puts a standard video signal onto a 2.4GHz carrier but there is no guarantee that it would work, you'd be hoping that Swann used an off-the-shelf transmitter/receiver and didn't play around with it to prevent this happening (and that the video signal transmitted is suitable, their receiver might be needed to do extra some extra format conversion).

These generic analogue receivers usually just take the video signal off the wireless carrier and output it via a composite connector suitable for plugging into a TV or monitor so you would then need a USB video capture device (one that is supported by linux) to take that signal and pass it to the RPi.

2.4 GHz is not synonymous with Wi-Fi.
