I would read the form data on the server side into perl data structures.
Then, you can simply add to the perl data structures. I know this sounds
like an obvious solution, but that is the way that web applications work.

If you are asking about how to change what is in the form on the
browser, you cannot do that once the form has been submitted without
regenerating the HTML and sending it back to the browser (or doing some
AJAX calls from the browser, which is likely to be more complicated).
