First, you cannot just change any image format to .webp just by changing extension.
You'll have to properly change the format.

Second, a ContentProvider is the most important part here that will allow WhatsApp to communicate with your App to know about the sticker files (Images).
So No, you cannot just add a sticker pack to WhatsApp without implementing the appropriate ContentProvider.

Check the ContentProvider implementation here & change it according to your logic.
