Currently there is no support for atlas modification on the fly, but you could technically do that by creating an atlas that's using a render texture, or a texture you create yourself by writing pixels. The trick is, as you write a new sprite to the texture used by the atlas, you also should add a new sprite entry to the atlas.

Not at this time. This code is on the editor side in order to reduce final build size and make sure that it works on all platforms. As I mentioned, you can create your own custom atlas by using render texture or writing pixels yourself. Atlas maker is an editor-only tool, however.
