I suppose they could add charges once they have him on US soil, but I don't know if that would have changed things as far as the extradition went. At this point they only have to show that they have enough evidence to make a case against him.
I suppose if the added charges violated his basic human rights, or they went against the extradition laws of the country he was extradited in it could be a problem, but I think the likelyhood of that happening are pretty small.
Personally, I think if the US wins and he is extradited he will likely end up cutting a deal. I think the government will get one of his guys to agree to testify against him and that will force Dotcom to realize he is screwed so he will try to cut the best deal he can.
