Well, I guess the best time to add new plants to your collection in temporate areas would logically seem to be Spring. However - I still find myself shopping for bananas! They'll slow down over the winter then resume in the Spring, so as long as they have a couple of months to get established, I don't see any problem with new additions so long as you can protect it over the winter. Are you going to be dark-storing them (like the fella who stores his under his house over the winter) or are they going to receive some light?

Be well,
Mike
