Will this work?

static import std.string;
deprecated public alias split = std.string.split;

Yes, but not for all cases. If I have code where I import std.string and use std.algoritm.startsWith(...), then it would not work

But this can be solved by something like this:

deprecated {
    static struct std {
        static struct algorithm {
            static import std.algorithm;
            alias startsWith = std.algorithm.startsWith;
        }
    }
}

However than you can`t use global imports
