This has been possible for years already. FDNPKG, the current FreeDOS packages manager supports multiple repositories. When I developed it, I had in mind that people might start their own (free, non-free, shareware, whatever) repositories to complement the official (FOSS only) FreeDOS repos. So far, I am not aware of anyone having done that. Are you willing to start your own repository? It won't be included in FreeDOS, but FreeDOS people will be able to use it by adding a single configuration line to their setups. Alternatively, you might also consider submitting (non-free) packages to svarog386.
