I don't think python modules are loaded I based on what you do with chdir. Modules are loaded from the folder you started the python shell and folders in PYTHONPATH.
If you want dynamically load modules maybe you can check imp.loadmodule (sample in the bottom of the page).
ANSWER 2

you can add to the PYTHONPATH in code by doing
sys.path.append('<newpath'>)
from dfa import *
I don't believe changing your current directory has any impact on the import process and even if it did, I'm not sure that's how you would want to do it.
