Well, it should be possible to add files to your main MPQ but what should that be for? Nobody else has these files so nobody is able to play your map.

When you added your file, you probably still can't choose it from the Object Editor's list, but maybe you can type the path in manually (with mdl in the end instead of mdx)?
If it's not that what you mean, please describe your problem more in detail.
