All information I could find regarding DSC on Nano Server suggest the DSC should be added to the server image upon creation, e.g. Using DSC on Nano Server:

DSC on Nano Server is an optional package in the NanoServer\Packages folder of the Windows Server 2016 media. The package can be installed when you create a VHD for a Nano Server by specifying Microsoft-NanoServer-DSC-Package as the value of the Packages parameter of the New-NanoServerImage function.

Is there any way to add the DSC to an already existing system? Namely to the one deployed from 2016-Nano-Server image provided by Microsoft on Azure.

Copy the DSC cab file from 2016 install media onto the nano server, then use DISM to add it.

Dism.exe /online /Add-Package /PackagePath:c:\Microsoft-NanoServer-DSC-Package.cab

You can also try using the Install-NanoServerPackage powershell command but I've found it to be rather buggy at the moment.
