Yes that would work.
Or you could drop a script into /usr/lib/finish-install.d/.

To make your parameters permanent, you really need to add them in the
configuration setting part of the file, i.e. either the line
   # kopt=[...]
or
   # defoptions=[...]

If you want to have them available after the first reboot, you should the
either run update-grub in the /target chroot, or _also_ add them in the
already generated sections for the installed kernel.

But if it's possible, I will try with no debian-installer modifications (only the preseed file), no modify finish.d scripts.
I want to include kernel parameters in only one Grub entry, no all entry. I will try with this:
 d-i preseed/late_command string /target/bin/sed "s/sda1/sda1 $KERNEL_PARAMETERS/" menu.lst > /target/boot/grub/menu.lst"
 
For include kernel parameters in all Grub entries, I thing can be something like this:
 d-i preseed/late_command string /target/bin/sed "s/#kopt/kopt=$KERNEL_PARAMETERS/" menu.lst > /target/boot/grub/menu.lst"
