According to GameInformer, you will need to purchase downloadable content on Xbox.com or on your Xbox 360 console to fully access it.

They have confirmed that all DLC will be supported and automatically downloaded onto your Xbox with the supported games. It will also support both digital and disc-based games for Xbox 360.  For users that already own the DLC, they should have no hiccups once the service goes live. Add-ons work the same way, meaning you have to use the Xbox website or load them onto your Xbox 360.

For devoted Xbox fans and casual gamers alike, this is big news given all the time invested in building their collection of games. Seeing that DLC will not be lost during this backward compatibility program makes the November 12th launch that much more exciting.
