I would think both of these could be implemented as user-defined functions but
it’s hard to know without seeing a specification: saying you want a function
called array:index-of() is not very informative unless you explain exactly what
you want the function to do.
If it’s to behave like fn:index-of() then you can write it as
array:index-of($array, $value) {
(1 to array:size($array))[ $array(.) = $value ]
}
which is hardly a great hardship to write as a user-defined function.
