  linkWith "lib"

I found subConfiguration in the docs but that seems to be related to external dependencies.

app.d merely provides a CLI to the library as well as an option to run as a server. I don't want to have the overhead of an entire git repo and such for something that is a single file and also closely related to the library.

Yes, this is possible. Should be something like this:

configuration "lib" {
   targetType "dynamicLibrary"
   targetPath "lib"
   sourcePaths "source/lib/"
   excludedSourceFiles "source/app.d"
}

configuration "app" {
   targetType "executable"
   mainSourceFile "source/app.d"
   excludedSourceFiles "source/lib/*.d"
   importPaths "source/lib"
   libs "lib/libName"
}
