Is there any way I can create a Virtual Box disk image (.vdi) that is NTFS formatted and copy a set of files to it prior to attaching it to an already configured instance as a second disk using VBoxManage?

Yes, you will have to:

  1. "Aattch" the VDI file as another disk device
  2. "Mount" NTFS partitions in that VDI file

Ways of doing that are described in this post:
