I have a class library in C# which is compiled into a dll. Is it possible to change something in a compiled class method for a specific project without touching the original source code or creating a new class by inheritance?

It’s technically possible using code rewriting via a technique used by frameworks like Moles. However, I wouldn’t recommend this. Instead, you’d be better off with an wrapper class that delegates calls to a contained object and overrides the behavior you’re after for only the specific methods that must change.
