Export the work item type, add the fields, and re-import it. As long as you do not delete any fields, this will not affect existing work items.

You may have to bulk-edit existing work items to put in valid values for the newly-added fields.

The best way to do this is by installing the TFS Power Tools, which will add the Process Editor to your Team menu.
