Is there a programmatic technique whereby plugins can contribute
menus/actions to the workbench main menu dynamically (i..e based on some
data read at run time) as opposed to static, a priori definition of the
menus and actions via the plugin.xml file?

Note that statically contributed actions can have their visibility
specified according to somewhat dynamic attributes. See the actionSet
extension point doc for details (the "visibility" element).
