I kind of agree with Claire, "MAKING A FUNNY" isn't really correct. People might sometimes say it though, sort of like an imitation of how a child might speak.
So, it's probably good to know about it, but you probably don't want to say it yourself.

No, you can't. 'Are you making a funny' is not correct.
