You can add a package with, e.g, 

  #+latex_header: \usepackage{biblatex-chicago}

but style is controlled through style, bibstyle or citestyle options
from "biblatex" package.

Hopefully, the solution suggested by Thomas S. Dye works. Otherwise, we
will need a different mechanism for managing styles. I though about
doing something like

  #+cite_export: biblatex  package:style

e.g.,

  #+cite_export: biblatex biblatex-chicago:author-date

which would insert

  \usepackage[style=author-date]{biblatex-chicago}

instead of

  \usepackage[style=biblatex-chicago:author-date]{biblatex}

in the preamble of the document.

But we cannot presume all packages will use "style=..." syntax. So…
hopefully, the suggested solution works.
