You can NOT add real hardware devices with "ip link add ...".
This only works to create virtual CAN devices (vcan).
If you have a working CAN hardware in your system a 'can0' should already be
created by the CAN driver.
Please send the output of
cat /proc/net/dev
to see if there's a CAN device.
Or you might check the content of 'dmesg' output for CAN devices.

Oliver
