You can add them as user defined formats in the number formatter:
MMM YY
MMMM YY
MMM YYYY
MMMM YYYY
Comment 2 Joel Madero 2017-05-05 14:06:03 UTC
This is already easily possible.

1. right click on cell
2. format cell
3. Numbers tab;
4. User-defined category

Then with format code:
mmm yy = "Apr 17"
mmmm yy = "April 17"
mmm yyyy = "Apr 2017"
mmmm yyyy = "April 2017"

Closing as WFM.
