Re: [aspectj-users] Replace void with return this
Yes, but it is a source-compatible change, not a binary-compatible change.  Any code that was calling the woven method(s) would have to be recompiled to use the woven library successfully.

If a setter has been weaved to return this instead of void, can non-aspect client code use that to chain main executions ?

Only to provide the builder pattern to chain method executions, especially WRT setters.

Well with modifying the bytecode anything is possible. But whether it fits into the remit of AspectJ I'm not sure.  What is your use case?

Can AspectJ replace void return types with 'return this' capability?
Basically, for any class T, change
void doStuff() {}
to
T doStuff() { return this; }

This has been requested over in pure java land and got deferred.
