Can you upload the new records of a log file every 10 seconds to make a real-time report ?

I have a Java program that is adding records to a log file.
I need to know if there's a way that I can make Splunk upload the new records that are being created in order to make a real-time analysis

Definitely. Just monitor the file as described below and then create a real-time search as described below that:
