It could work by defining the return type of the function when you use it, in this instance:

Print PlayerInformation:String()
Local a:Int = PlayerInformation:Int()

For all intents and purposes, how is that different to :

Print PlayerInformationString()
Local a:Int = PlayerInformationInt()

...where the functions have same base name, but different by something that lets you know what type they are.
