It seems like there's a problem in concepts, a certifcate cannot contain a CRL, but a CRL can contain one or more certificates. Considering that, a certificate cannot even be sure to be contained in a CRL, that can only known by checking the CRL. Regarding your second question, a certificate cannot get a CRL, that's a CA job, the CA defines how often the CRL will be available, so you need to do this manually.
i hope it helps, bye.
