Documents in Lucene are heterogeneous, with fields being defined per
document not per index. You can introduce a new field on a new
document at any time. There is currently no way to _update_ a
document other than deleting it and re-adding it though - so if you
want to add a new field to an existing document you need to take
those two steps.

If yes how to proceed.
Please elaborate on what you mean by "index structure". Lucene
supports incremental indexing, if that is what you mean - so you can
always add/delete documents from an existing index.
