I think what you're asking for is totally weird, and with just about
zero advantages compared with several saner alternatives that have
already been proposed in this thread and that you have rejects, but
sure, it's possible:
def addaclass(aninst, onemoreclass):
aninst.__class__ = type(aninst.__aclass__.__name__,
(aninst.__aclass__, onemoreclass), {})
