The strptime format string doesn't match the sample time string.  Try this

| eval t=strftime(strptime(time, "%b %d, %y %H:%M:%S %p %Z"), "%H:%M:%S")

This should be a new posting, but, yes, you can do that, however not using where.  To search only yesterday, use the earliest and latest options to the search command.

index=foo earliest=-1d@d latest=@d
