In Java Card, is it generally possible for new applications to be installed from within the context of an existing application on the card, for example by sending the new code via an application-defined messaging format and then creating a new application instance using some card manager API?

Card Content Management (load, install, etc) on java cards is done via a Security Domain. That's an applet with the respective privileges. check GlobalPlatform Card Specification for details
