Nah, for games like this they have to plan their dlc way in advance. Anything that has story elements more voicework, art assets, etc. takes a very long time to put together. If they wanted to release it while the game is still fresh, they have to start work on it well before the game ships. Usually they have a seperate team that will start working on dlc about a year out from launch.
Games like call of duty that just release a few new maps every couple of months can wait until after the game is finished before they start working on it. But for something like this, it isnt odd at all and should be expected that they are working on dlc before the game launches...
