With the Duo moments feature turned on, you'll see the little round button to snap pictures in all your Google Duo video calls. When you capture a photo, all participants of the video call are notified and the snapshot saves to every individual's phone automatically.

It goes without saying that the group video call participants must all have Duo moments enabled on their phones too. Even if a single person doesn't have the feature on their phone, no one will be able to take and share photos of the video chat. So, make sure you've checked with everyone in the teleconference before trying to take a picture.
