Can an Application change it's own manifest file's attributes?
Is it possible for a custom application (.apk) downloaded from Android Store (Google) to change its own manifest attributes at run time ?

No (other than doing some hack, you probably don't want to get into) that would defeat the point of declaring everything upfront. But there are some things like broadcastreceivers that can also be declared dynamically, so what is it exactly you are trying to change?
