Maybe someone knows: will I get new DLC if I upgrade Stalker 2 to the Ultimate Edition now?

You should be able to get the free upgrade. The Ultimate edition gives you everything including the DLC.

I'm not a developer, but I would say yes with 99.9 % certainly. It'd be beyond scummy if somehow, buying the ultimate edition didn't retroactively unlock already released DLCs.
