Adobe has a document describing the structure. Looks like the format is a little more complicated than would permit this. I tried it, the resulting document is corrupted (of course). But if you knew how to extract the pointers to all the objects, and the body information containing any fonts and other things, it is *possible* to add to an existing PDF document. It would take a lot of testing and poking around though.
I would bet on a Mac, Applescript would have a way of combining two documents by telling Acrobat to do so.
