I'm able to download AFCAD files which contain runways which have been recently added, but when I run PMDG 737 in FSX, the new runways do not appear. Is there a file in the FSX.Cfg that could prevent additional runways from appearing?

Are you talking runways in fsx itself that you land on or runways in the fmc/nav display and does it only happen with the NGX? If it's the runways itself where are you putting the files? If it's the fmc data then you need to look at your airac date.

The PMDG or any payware's FMC database will not update when you update the AFCAD files. I believe that as long as that new runway is actually exist in the real world, you can get that update through purchasing the latest AIRAC file for the aircraft. (I do not know whether you can tweak the database though)
