Is this type of forward referencing possible?

Not the same.  The OP wanted someType to be a class-level attribute,
not an instance level one.

I'm guessing the class mapping is all part of an overall design, so I
would define all of these after creating A and B as empty classes:

class A: pass
class B: pass

A.someType = B
B.anotherType = A
