Can we get NFC with accessory add-ons?

[hp420]

Hypothetically speaking, is there any glaring obstacle to adding an NFC chip to an external case for those new mid-range devices coming without one, like our Moto G? I see external battery cases that plug into the usb port....I also see qi modules being mounted the same way. So besides the missing menu in settings and maybe a few libs, etc, which is a simple case of using a few modified apks or a custom rom, would this be a genuine possibility?

Idk. It seems unlikely.

My previous (now broken) phone was a Samsung Galaxy s3neo. The only reason it was not possible for developers to get official CM was the unavailability of NFC sources specific to the device, which on stock rom has a perfectly functional NFC. The chip is integrated into the battery.
Unfortunately the devs were unable to get the existing chip to work properly.
It sounds unlikely to me.

tyfone has a patented nfc capable micro sd card, but I can't find anywhere to buy one..

If you strap an NFC-enabled phone to the back of the Moto G, that should sort it
