Would it be possible to add some capping residues (like --COCH3 and --NHCH3) by writing a separate .itp file and including it in the topology file? Is there a way to make it consistent with charmm forcefield?


No, because you have to specify bonds between these capping residues and your protein. If you're #including them as new [moleculetypes], then you can't add these bonds.

Can this be done alternatively by modifying the .rtp file? If yes, what other operations must one do before using these .rtp files?


Reading in the manual about the file format? I don't understand your question entirely. All the other force fields use .rtp entries for caps, so I don't see why this couldn't be done.
