Basically this would be impossible to do because adding an new google account without the prior information of the user itself would definetely be a kind of malware or theft app.

Therefore according to Google this would lead to violate the user freedom and its trust towards Android operating system.

But you can add new google account and can ask user to enter the password for that account. So there will be no permission violation.
