is it possible to make an extension function like this where I can have the class being extended and the return type as type params T, and V

val String.foo: Bar by someMethod()

no. property delegate is stored in a hidden field and extensions can't add fields

[ephemient]

this might be close

inline fun <reified T, reified V> T.someMethod(): V = TODO()

val String.foo: Bar
    get() = someMethod<String, Bar>()

that's a little disappointing to hear but I guess it'll be fine like that
