"ANTI sway bar" and "sway bar" is the same thing. All it is is a flexible bar that ties together both sides of the suspension. With a solid axle it is connected to each shock, with an independent suspension it's usually connected to each lower control arm or wherever the end of the shock not mounted to the car body mounts to.

Adding sway bars to an Accord is not going to break anything, but I wouldn't bother with them until after you have shocks and springs.
