You cannot add a child born in 2021 to a 2020 tax return if that is what you are asking to do. You will be able to enter his information as a dependent on your 2021 tax return next year.
But....
Congratulations on your child born in 2021! There will be a portal on the IRS site where in August or September you can enter information for a child who was born in 2021 to get the monthly child tax credit advance payments. You will need your child’s Social Security number. The portal is not ready just yet.
