No. You could use it in a nickname for yourself or if you owned a shop you can include the word.
Oh you mean wonderfu-lust?! I own a dildo now and I'm on a diet putting different chemicals in my body so I'm not in the mood for that.

No, it is not. A good rule of thumb in English is if a word has two or fewer syllables, use the -er and -est endings (eg. happy, happier, happiest), but if it has three or more syllable use "more and most" (eg. wonderful, more wonderful, most wonderful) and contray to what some people on here believe ALWAYS incorrect to use both (eg. "more nicer", "most nicest").
Generally, two-syllable adjectives not ending in -y don't take -er and-est endings: legal, lawful, vacant, ardent, comic, tragic, craven, etc.
Oops, sorry, typo..."most wonderful".
