Here you go:

    auto extractArray(int i)()

        return tuples.map!(a => a[i]).array;
    }
// return tuple of calls to extractArray, one for each tuple index return tuple(staticMap!(extractArray, aliasSeqOf!(Types.length.iota)));
}

void main() {
    Tuple!(int, double)[] array;
    array ~= tuple(1, 2.0);
    array ~= tuple(3, 4.0);
    Tuple!(int[], double[]) tuple = array.transposeTuple;
    assert(tuple[0] == [1, 3]);
    assert(tuple[1] == [2.0, 4.0]);
}

One tiny thing: the above fails for tuples with named fields, like Tuple!(int, "a", string "b"). This code handles that case, and preserves field names:

import std.meta : staticMap, aliasSeqOf;
import std.typecons : Tuple;
import std.range : array, iota;
import std.algorithm : map;

alias ToArray(T) = T[];
alias ToArray(T...) = T;
alias ToArrayTuple(T : Tuple!U, U...) = Tuple!(staticMap!(ToArray, U));

auto transpose(T : Tuple!U, U...)(T[] arr) {
    auto extract(int i)() { return arr.map!(a => a[i]).array; }
return ToArrayTuple!T(staticMap!(extract, aliasSeqOf!(T.Types.length.iota)));
}

unittest {
    alias T = Tuple!(int, "a", string, "b");
    auto a = [T(1, "a"), T(2, "b")];
    assert(a.transpose.a == [1, 2]);
    assert(a.transpose.b == ["a", "b"]);
}
