This might be possible in certain scripting languages, but not in 
D.

Static fields are generated during compile time, and while 
something like that is possible using template mixins in the code 
(famous use in D is Phobos's bitfields, which generates 
properties for a struct or a class), it's impossible during 
runtime, and - in extension - by reading a value from console.
