EDITED, forgot to put "script" in the post

You mean something like this?

local path = ":exResource/newfile.txt" 
local f = fileLoad ( path, fileGetSize ( path ) ) 
fileWrite ( f, "This is an updated file" ) 
fileClose ( f )

mta root folder

Of course you can't change those... you can only modify resource files.

you can only modify resource files.

then how can resource file can modify GTA3.img? curious if u can actually change anything at the MTA Folder through the Resource

You don't change anything, and gta3.img is in GTA folder. You don't change its contents, you just replace the model in game through engine functions (look up at wiki).
