If you put it into a package, then you could have your own object module
that then isn't at the top level - e.g. mypkg/object.d with

module mypkg.object;

but you can't have more than one module in your program with the same full
module name. So, in the case of the top-level module, object, you can only
declare your own if you replace the default one, which you might do in some
special situations, but it's not something that you would normally do, and
you can never have both the normal object module and your own in the same
program.
