When clicking on the add to wishlist button, I want to remain on the same page & perform the add function without redirecting to the wishlist page - is this possible?

You need to rewrite the method _addItemToWishList from the controller Mage_Wishlist_IndexController and replace the last line.
Instead of 

$this->_redirect('*', array('wishlist_id' => $wishlist->getId()));

You have to put:

 $this->_redirectReferer();

[EDIT].

Here is an example on how you can rewrite a controller.
You need to rewrite (like I said) Mage_Wishlist_IndexController. The controller is found in app/code/core/Mage/Wishlist/controllers/IndexController.php.

What you're looking for is an Ajax solution. There are many extensions available to implement this for you, here are a few examples:

Alternately, if you'd like to implement it yourself, here is a guide:

    I don't see why not, although neither extension explicitly states that they support 1.9 . Try it on your staging environment and let us know.

    I have not, no. That's why it's best to always test any extension on a staging environment. Both of the extensions listed though are well reviewed & have a decent user base. Read through the reviews.
