You can most certainly import font assets at runtime from Addressables, AssetBundles, etc.

You can also create font assets at runtime using something similar to the following:

// Get paths to OS Fonts
string[] fontPaths = Font.GetPathsToOSFonts();

// Create new font object from one of those paths
Font osFont = new Font(fontPaths[index]);

// Create new dynamic font asset
TMP_FontAsset fontAsset = TMP_FontAsset.CreateFontAsset(osFont);

The above is from the following thread which also discusses the new Dynamic OS Font Asset type coming in the next release.

There is TMP_FontAsset API functions to add characters to font assets, etc.
