Question

I need to apply some changes into extjs 4.x core library to supports right-to-left direction in rendering.i already know its not good to manipulate the ExtJS code directly.

My question is: How to do this via another js file that loaded into page after the ext-all.js ?

its possible to change a predefined sencha class method by calling Ext.apply() ?

It really depends what exactly you need to modify. But I believe you meant the following.

I have a file called ext-mods.js, which is loaded after ext-all.js:

Ext.onReady(function(){

    Ext.override( Ext.data.writer.Json, {
         // We want all records sent to the server be encoded as an array,
         // even if there's a single record
         allowSingle:    false,

         // We only want to send what have changed
         writeAllFields: false
    });

});

I have changed the default config for all Json Writers, but you can equally override methods (by copying the code from the library and then apply your modifications).
