How to add/remove security Pricipal User/Group without re-deploying
application?

I don't understand what you are asking. I can think of two possibilities:

1. You would like to change the identity information for some users. For instance, add a user or add a group to a user. Depending on how your security realm is set up, you'd edit this information. For instance using the property file login module you'd edit the user and group properties files (I think there's a console page to help with this). Using an ldap login module you'd modify the ldap data.

2. You want to change the principal-role mapping that indicates which security realm principals are associated with particular application roles. To do this you need to redeploy the application after editing the security element in your geronimo plan.

In order to avoid the need for (2) you should plan your security carefully so there are enough roles in the application and enough principals mapped to these roles to distinguish between all the kinds of users your application needs.
