Sort of, you can do this:

function someObject(){
//whatever here
}

someObject.SOME_FIELD = 42;
alert(someObject.SOME_FIELD);

I’m not aware of a way to make objects immutable or constant though. That’s not to say it can’t be done however.

Are there workarounds for constants and static members & methods ?

The const keyword seems to exist - but not accessible from outside the class like obj1.c1 or someObject.c1

function someObject()
{
const c1 = 1;
}
