You can add any type of file to an existing 'book', but only one file of any type (e.g. one MP3 audio, one MP4 video, one DOCX document etc) and you MUST do it via calibre, not via a file manager.

You can add a file (or files) to a 'book' via:

Drag/Dropping the file(s) into the Book Details panel (on the right),
The Add Books->Add files to selected book records from clipboard action - you need to load the file(s) clipboard with Ctrl+C in your file manager first. You can set a keyboard shortcut for this action, I use Alt+Shift+V
The Add Books->Add files to selected book records dialogue
