NO! Use normal lithium grease (preferable petrolium jelly or vaseline) but only after first cleaning up the terminals and clamps and connecting them together. The idea of the grease is to keep moisture and any fumes from the battery away from the terminals and clamps and keep a good solid connection there, nothing more.

No. Use petroleum jelly, Vaseline, or a proprietary anti corrosive product like 'Nocrode' Mike.
