They can probably do some kind of SA-1 hash check, and see if it was altered, but a "hidden" firmware update is not likely. Other than pretty much destroying the dvd-rom of anyone who accidentally powers theirs off, it cannot be done without the users consent (legally).

There are many privacy issues. MS does not own your console, signing onto a service like xbox live does not give them the right to alter your hardware without you knowing.
