On Mac OS X 10.2 and earlier, you can do that easily since invisible
files are "visible" in the Add Files... dialog.
On Mac OS X 10.3 and later, you can do that this way:
1. Choose Archive > Add Files...
2. Type Command + Shift + G to display the Go to sheet/dialog
3. Type the absolute path of the invisible file
4. Click Go/OK.
You're done.
