TypeScript hybrid type implementation

Question

On http://www.typescriptlang.org/Handbook#interfaces website Hybrid Types are explained. As these are extremely helpful for creating typings to JS - I wonder if it's possible to define a class implementing e.g. such interface:

interface Counter {
    (start: number): string;
    interval: number;
    reset(): void;
}

If not then maybe it's possible to create just an object of that type? How?

No

Yes. There will be some use of a type assertion (or any):

interface Counter {
    (start: number): string;
    interval: number;
    reset(): void;
}

function getCounter():Counter{
    var counter = <Counter>function(start:number){};
    counter.interval = 123;
    counter.reset = function(){};
    return counter;
}
