Yes you can by creating your own textbox class, such as 

Class MyTextBox
    Inherits TextBox

    Public Shadows Property SelectionStart As Integer
        Get
            '   Get Code
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Integer)
            '   Set code 
        End Set
    End Property

End Class

SelectionStart property is not marked as virtual, so you can not override it. Other properties that are virtual or overridable can be overridden.

You can create your own custom control that inherits from the textbox control and override whatever events you need to. Here is some guidance from MSDN.
