In Firefox the bookmark backup files are in JSON format, which doesn't allow that backup file to be merged with existing bookmarks.

Restoring a backup would overwrite your existing bookmarks. But if you would export your existing bookmarks in HTML format, you could import that HTML file to append / merge after restoring the backup.
