No... you can't extend the template file, at least not yet that I've heard of.
You may be able to consider instead of extending the component you could create a container for it that passes the block as a parameter, along with whatever other configuration. Parent template: <div> <t:defer to="overrideBlock"> </div> <t:block id="defaultOverrideBlock">default stuff</t:block> in the Parent class your getOverrideBlock either returns the parameter overrideBlock or the defaultOverrideBlock. Child template: <t:parent> <t:parameter name="overrideBlock"> override stuff.... </t:parameter> </t:parent> Of course, that's not going to be the right solution in all cases...
