I want to create a [coop] map on Hl2: Deathmatch. I can add headcrabs (but they don't do much) but I can't add other NPC:s like npc_zombie and that kind of funny stuff. Please help me. You're all so much smarter than me.

hl2:dm wont have all the correct AI needed to run a coop map. Its more then just putting in NPC's. I believe you need to create a mod with the correct AI or your going to have the problem of each player seeing different things.

May be true. But I've seen coop maps online at hl2mp.

They will be running with server plugins. You're better off making your map for Garry's Mod, which supports that kind of stuff out of the box.

Henley and varsity are right.

There is little (if any at all) support for NPC's in HL2DM. Your best bet is building a serverside plugin or as Varsity said, building on Gmod.

There no GMOD game-mode for coop.... And no one would play it if there no gamemode for it. Try looking for a coop mod to use on modDB.
