My insider subscription is ending soon, and I cannot afford to renew, but what I am wondering, is if I purchase a subscription next year (or whenever) can I actually go back and purchase Dragon and Dungeon magazines that I've missed in the meantime?
Thanks.

Last I knew not yet, it however is in planning stages.
On the plus side, last I knew, if you stop being a member but become a paying member again you will have access to all back issues. That is if somebody opened a new account they currently get access to all back issues. This of course can change at any point it time. You take your chances as to what the futire holds.

For additional clarity:
It has been much requested, anticipated, and hoped for that there will be a set of "tiered" options or better stiil a la carte options for D&D Insider at some point in the future. At the very least it seems that many people would like a "magazines-only" style option in addition to a "give me everything" option. Many people would like options that range in-between as well.
To the best of my knowledge WotC hasn't promised or announced any work on such tiered/custom plans, however. I've been a little off my game of late, however, so if Kentinal or anyone else has more up-to-date information, I will be more than happy to be proven wrong on this.
Additionally - what Kentinal said about back issues should be listened to. Right now anyone who pays for even a single month of DDI has access to the entire DDI magazine library. This was not WotC's original intention, and could well go away at any time. In short, while it's a great perk now - don't bank on it lasting forever.
If it does, great!
If, on the other hand you wait a year to re-subscribe and find you suddenly don't have access to back-issues, be forwarned.
