I watched a couple of prep videos from people who played the 3 hour demo and they said just have a dude who's beaten the game but hasn't moved to journey 2.

I have a few in that state already, but I'm also wondering if there is a cut off trigger. Like if the final boss is dead, can I still go into the DLC? Or even if I can, if there are new ending conditions to change the ending can I obtain them? Technically I've already committed to an ending and seen the credits roll; I just haven't moved to J2 at the Roundtable.

Yeah. I ran through every main ending with the same character, and I think this last one was the Age of Stars ending. I don't mind starting up a new journey to get to the DLC, I'd just rather get it out of the way so I can just straight into it when it releases. Thursday is my day off, and I'd rather not waste all of the time I have to play on rehashing the old stuff.

If you can beat Mogh at a low level, it only takes like an hour of play going straight for the medal (via Varre's quest; assuming you just invade 3 times and exit instead of going to Altus to kill whats-his-face) to teleport to his palace. But of course, you do have to kill Mogh, so that's where it's gonna eat up time from a fresh toon if you're not super good at the game. Grabbing a good weapon, some rocks and maybe grinding the red dudes or the bird.
