Anything is possible given enough money.
you could build a freaking dome over the entire stadium if you really wanted to.
Could you do it in a cost-effective manner? Probably not.

Eventually they will have to start all over, and that would be the prudent time to worry about a roof or air conditioning or modern bathrooms.

I cannot comment on the structural feasibility of adding a canopy.
However, I don't think it work with the aesthetics oft he intended Coliseum Style of stadium.

I think it is possible depending on how much money they are willing to spend, how much new structure they will allow, where new columns (if any) can be located, how much load can be added to existing, etc.
It's usually not a function of whether something is possible, but how reasonable the costs are and what architectural concessions have to be made.

Is it even possible from an engineering perspective if after the south end zone addition is done, down the road if we added a partial roof sorta similar to CenturyLink Field (Seattle Seahawks stadium) to TS?
Why? Never rains in Tiger Stadium...

Some shade on the West Upper Deck would be nice with all these day games

Aren't they eventually going to do the same on the north end zone that they are currently doing on the south end zone ?

One large blue tarp. We should have some left over from Katrina.

With enough time, money and space you can build any structure you want.
