Yes, I think, that's exactly what `font-lock-add-keywords' does - see
its documentation - and the elisp manual, e.g. (elisp) Customizing
Keywords.

I don't yet know the logic behind your code.  What exactly do you want
to highlight - do you want functions/variables of any special kind?  I
mean, In Lisp, the layout of the code already reveals which symbols will
be interpreted as functions.  Probably that's why functions are not
highlighted.
