Do you mean you want to change the Main domain?

"Advanced Hosting Nameservers
If the domain for this website is registered through us, we will automatically configure your domain to work with your website."

...But you offer this service only once? Both my current main domain (flagmob.org) and my intended future main domain (spinyourworld.com) are both registered through you. I couldn't find any documentation stating (or, warning) that once a domain was configured to advanced hosting, that this action is permanent.

A cursory google search tells me that this change is possible at other hosting companies. Surely there is some way to change the main domain, while retaining all the files associated with the old one.

If you add new domains to your hosting plan, you can set the Name Servers yourself.  Our system doesn't have the ability to "see" the Add On Domains inside your CPanel account.  

My domain was registered by Dynadot, and I also use your web hosting plan. How do I set my domain's name server settings to use my Dynadot web hosting plan?

To use your Dynadot web hosting plan, please follow these steps:

  1. Log into your Dynadot account.
  2. Click on the "Domains" tab in the main menu.
  3. Click on the link listed in the "Name Server" column. After the page loads, you should see your current name server choice close to the top of the page.
  4. Click on the "Dynadot Hosting" tab.
  5. Select "Basic Web Hosting" or "Advanced Web Hosting" from the list of choices and then click the "Use Dynadot Hosting" button to use your Dynadot web hosting plan.

Please be aware that it might take some time for your changes to propagate.
