It's a bad idea. You shouldn't try to write C programs that look like Fortran programs, you shouldn't speak French with English pronunciation, and you shouldn't try to write Julia programs that look like Python programs. Part of programming is learning to adapt to the local style, both the style of a programming language and also the style of a project that you are contributing to.
The only difference between object.verb(args...) and verb(object, args...) is spelling. Since there is no practical need for the former, you should just get used to the Julia spelling when writing Julia code. Steven PS. In olden times, many people learned programming in Pascal. When they switched to C, their first instinct was often to define macros that made C look more like Pascal, and this was universally considered to be a mistake by experienced programmers.
