Possible with scripting:

var aDoc = app.activeDocument;

var aTF = aDoc.textFrames.add();

aTF.contents = aDoc.name;

aTF.position = [20, -50];

Save as *.jsx in Illustrator Scripts folder and

Have fun

This can be done with scripts, see and download here one that works

Illustrator Script to add a Date and Time to your file » Blog » FashionClassroom.com

if you want something more automated you can try a plugin called Tag72a from this site

Tag72a for Adobe Illustrator - Macintosh

I have used this for a long time and works so good
