Since it is possible in C, it should be possible in D.  A quick search 
turned up this page:

When it comes to LAPACK (and BLAS), Bill Baxter has already written D1 
bindings.  I've converted them to D2 and published them (with his kind 
permission) as part of SciD (see scid.bindings.*).  Which brings me to 
your next question...

Of the things you mention, SciD only contains a few linear algebra 
routines (see scid.linalg and the aforementioned BLAS/LAPACK bindings).  
There may be other things you'll find useful in there, though:
