First, I'm wondering why you have the line that says:

ns. A

in the template at all? Is every site on the server going to be running their own Nameservers? If not, you can remove that one from your base server template. Those A records should be part of the domain that the nameservers have been set up for with your Registrar. Just a single instance for each NS# at the domain level.

So if the domain name you've set up nameservers for at the registrar is hostingdomain.com you would have the following additional lines set up at the domain level for this domain only:

ns3.hostingdomain.com A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
ns4.hostingdomain.com A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Where the x's are the IP two numbers you've set up to use for nameservers.

Then, to get back to your question about the template at the server level, the two additional lines would look like:

. NS ns3.hostingdomain.com.
. NS ns4.hostingdomain.com.

Note that you don't need to put in the extra periods on the end. Just type in your ns3.hostingdomain.com etc.

ok so hostingdomain.com is the domain where i have the 2 ip and the ns3 and ns4

now do i need to add this domain into plesk?
