I would think so. An APK is basically a zip file with a manifest that has been 
signed.  Seems like you should be able to pin a manifest that installs those 
additional apps in your pack.  The biggest issue that I see is that the APK 
won't have been installed through Market and may have trouble updating as a 
result.  I'm not sure you want to go down this path, but I think you might be 
able to.

Still trying to figure this out if it's possible so if anyone has any
suggestions it'd be great.
