Oh, yes it's possible:

class Bicycle
{
     this()
     {
         gear = 1;
     }

     int currentGear;

     int gear()
     {
         return currentGear;
     }

     void gear(int value)
     {
         currentGear = value;
     }
}

So it means that there is absolyutely no difference between properties and 
functions in D? Perhaps the notion "property" is a little bit confusing in this case.
