May somebody tell me if it is ok to return from inside a @synchronized block?

For example:

    - (id)methodThatReturnsSomething:(BOOL)bDoIt
    {
        @synchronized(self) {      

             if(!bDoIt) return nil;
             ...
        }
    }

or should I unlock the block first (using NSLock instead)?

    @synchronized will automatically take down its exception-handling context when you return, and relinquish the lock. So the code you’ve written is fine.
