On Google Compute Engine, is there a way to change the machine type (for example, add cpu cores) after the machine was created?

It is not possible to change the machine type of a running instance.
The f1-micro is a shared-core machine type having 0.2 virtual CPUs. A virtual CPU is a single hardware hyperthread on an Intel Xeon E5. According to the documentation, the f1-micro has a bursting capability that allows it to use additional physical CPU for “short periods” of time “automatically”.
It is now possible in the Google compute engine (You can refer to this document).
You just need to stop the instance. And you can then edit the instance type and restart.
