I am no developer, but I am afraid that would be hard, as without the possibility of increasing the base class level beyond 20 (which I do not think will be possible unless WotC officially releases an "epic level" sourcebook rising the lvl20 cap of base classes, which seems unlikely) there would be no way to make new sub-classes for levels beyond 20. I really like the idea of using sub-classes to add features beyond level 20 though! A possible workaround, since it will be possible (unless I am terribly wrong) to add features and the like outside of normal progression come the character sheet revamp, might be to create feats that recreate the features you'd want to have as the post-20 subclasses, and tie them to specific classes and to lvl 20 characters as prerequisite.
I know, it's not the most elegant way of doing it, but it's an option, I think...

So in the 5E homebrew game I am running, we get up to level 20 and then I added 10 more levels.
When you add the future functionality to have homebrew sub classes, will the ability to customize the level cap be possible?
Thanks
