See code below :

class A {
    void foo() {
        new B!(a => visit(a), A)();
    }

    A visit(A a) {
        return a;
    }
}

class B(alias fun, T) {
    T t;
    typeof(fun(t)) result;
}

dmd output typeoffail.d(3): Error: need 'this' to access member visit

However, if typeof(fun(t)) result; is replaced by T result; or A result;
everything work as expected.

This is issue 8899. Change lambda template a => visit(a) to lambda function (A
a) => visit(a) and the code compiles.

I'm not sure at the problem trigger itself precisely when using typeof.

I think that using lambda without parameter type is often a problem. In lucky cases there is compilation error and in worse cases this leads to mysterious bugs.
