Query on Switch Stacking link

Switch I'm using is ICX7450 48-F

Will the sw reboot if add 2nd stack link?

I was having a thought does Switch will reboot if add 2nd stack link to both unit 1 and unit 2.
Currently the unit 1 and unit 2 in stack condition. But i would like to add another stack link to the both unit. is it possible?
if it possible, will the sw reboot when the 2nd link stacking cable is added?

My concern is I, I cannot have down time.

It sounds like you currently have a 'linear' topology (just one link between the switches), and you want to convert to a 'ring' topology, with two links between the switches. Is that correct?

If so, I'm fairly certain the switches will reboot when you change the stacking configuration in this way.
