No, that's not necessary filling the lifters with oil is just going to make it more likely you don't get the rocker torque down good. Just put a film of oil or assembly lube on the lifter contacts.

Should I use some lock-tight on the rocker arm bolts so they do not work themselves loose?

No, if you torque the bolts properly they won't come loose. the thread locker wouldn't help much in this situation anyway.
