How do I add a click or pop noise to an audio file

I have an audio file of length 8 seconds and would like to modify it and add a few digital click or pop sounds to it. Can I do it with the help of audacity? If yes, how? Any help or pointers would be really helpful.

You could "draw" some clicks in the track. See https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/draw_tool.html
