Is it possible to play new Skyrim DLC using an old character?

Is it possible to buy the game with no DLC, create a character (and play a fair bit), buy the DLC, install it, and play the newly installed DLC using the old character?
Also, I am playing on the XBox 360.
Best Answer
Yes, that is possible. That's exactly how I (and many others) played Skyrim.
If you bought Skyrim at launch, no DLC was available. Once you have purchased it, it will integrate naturally with your ongoing character.

Do DLCs work with Skyrim special edition?
If you're playing the original versions of the game and have bought the DLC, it'll show up on the game's main menu to signify it's available. If you have bought the PS4, Xbox One or PC version of the Special Edition, it'll automatically be included too.Can you reset a DLC in Skyrim?
The only way to replay the DLC on a Console is to make a new character. Uninstalling and reinstalling the DLC does not help with the issue, but might lead to a corrupt save if you try to load it without the DLC installed.Is Skyrim DLC worth playing?
Yes. All of them are worth it, Hearthfire has the least added. But it's still fun, nonetheless. Dawnguard and Dragonborn are definitely must-buys.Does Old Skyrim have DLC?
