No. To quote the poet:

    Master of the Universe / Eternal Master
    Who ruled before all of existence was created.
	When everything was made through His "Desire"
	His name was still called "King".
    And after everything is complete,
    He will still reign in awe.
	He Was, He Is,
	and He Will be in Splendor.
    He is One, there is no second,
    to be compared to Him. to consort with Him...

But never mind that poet. Ashrei ("Malkhusekha") or the pasuq from
Zekhariah most tack on to the end of Aleinu:
    Hashem with then be King over the whole world,
    on that day Hashem will be One, and His name, one.

: 2] if any other answer  is inserted ,  is the result kefira?

For Jews, Yes. Shituf is not a violation of Beris Noach.

Tir'u baTov!
