faking locking shocks..

so
i know nothing about shocks

i am thinking of getting a used bike that doesn;t have locking shocks
i want to be able to simulate locking somehow
i don;t need to be able to unlock and lock quickly

i know there are some adjustments on shocks
spring constant, and maybe damping..?
[[correct me if i am wrong]]

if i raised spring pressure [[air??]]] or the spring ''bias point'' (sorry i know nothing of the correct terminlogy)
and increased damping, would that sort of work?

are those even things you can set?
