It depends on the type of grout you used. Typical cement-based grouts cannot adhere to existing grout in lines of less than 1/8" deep, and it's advisable to remove all the grout and do over. If your grout is an epoxy-based grout, or some varieties of pre-mixed grout, it might be possible. Check the label to see if it adheres to existing grout, and at what thickness.
