From a security / QOL pov I'd like to disable an extension on some websites, and was wondering if there were any methods to do this?

I searched this question first through reddit and the support site and found similar questions with no updates asked between 4-6 years ago, wondering if there's been a method implemented yet or if it's still not possible.

Thanks!

You can create a separate profile with different extensions and use it for select sites. An easy way to do this is to install Developer Edition.

With Manifest V3 (MV3) extensions this should be possible as that allows to activate an extension website specific.
