can we add RAM/CPU cores to the QV server without any additional QV licenses?

Yes you can. There are no license restrictions for the hardware in QlikView.

We have 99 concurrent users how does it affect the performance?

There are no quick answer to that question. How much recourse a system needs depends on many variables and is unique to each deployment.  We do have a tool that you can use to test with, you can find it in the link below.

It depends on various factors for example the available resources, the applications itself and the kind of usage from the users if there is any effect and if how significantly it would be. For instance if the RAM is the bottleneck adding more cores won't be helpful because they would just be waiting like the others, too - to get any data. Quite different would it be if then RAM is added and no swapping with the virtual RAM would take place anymore - the performance increase would be very significantly.
