You have to first, use the configtxlator tool to read the genesis block and modify its contents, then submit it as a new transaction that updates the network/channel configuration. 

Hope this helps!

New version i.e the testing version of hyperledger fabric v1.1 preview gives this feature of adding new Org dynamically. Main role in this is of configtxlator, jq and configtxgen.

The configtxlator tool simplifies configuration tasks in Hyperledger Fabric blockchain networks. This tool easily converts between different equivalent data representations/formats.

Make sure you have the  Version 1.1.0-preview of Hyperledger Fabric  installed since this version introduces the peer channel signconfigtx command for collection of multiple signatures before submitting configuration updates. 

IBM has a step-by-step guide showing how to use this tool, as adding a new Org section in config JSON has additional steps involved.

Follow the below mentioned steps to add an organization:

Download the Hyperledger fabric samples.

$ git clone -b master https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric-samples.git
$ cd fabric-samples

Download platform specific binaries

$ curl -sSL https://goo.gl/6wtTN5 | bash -s 1.1.0

Bring the network down:

$ cd fabric-samples/first-network
$ ./byfn.sh -m down

Generate artifacts required and then bring the network up:

$ ./byfn.sh -m generate
$ ./byfn.sh -m up

Bring the new network up:

$ ./eyfn.sh up

That's all

Please refer to the official documentation. There's a proper step-by-step guide to add an organization to the Fabric. Here's the link: https://hyperledger-fabric.readthedocs.io/en/release-1.4/channel_update_tutorial.html
