Yes, it is specific to that plugin. It is conventional for post-build actions to run only if build is successful but some plugins that bring new post-build actions allow you to configure the actions to run for failed builds too. For example the Parameterized Trigger plugin is such.
You could just use the archive artifacts setting to copy build outputs. Jenkins always archives the matching files regardless if the build fails or succeeds.
