I use a large .bib file (about 5,000 entries) maintained by my

A few times a year it is updated with the latest newly published works.

If I start putting links to those papers I've downloaded to my
computer into the current version, is there some way in 6 months for
me to merge my paper links and the new entries in the new version?

Yes. Use an external file group for the updated file, and the merge option from the Database menu. You can actually add http://www-alg.ist.hokudai.ac.jp/~thomas/COLTBIB/colt.bib.gz directly as an external URL group, although you'll get an error message when loading it due to a badly formed author name.
