I think that I see what you mean. What we can do to achieve this is
changing `kill-line-query-function' into abnormal hook
`kill-line-query-functions'. Then, `kill-line'/`kill-whole-line' will
use (run-hook-with-args-until-success 'kill-line-query-functions) to
decide whether to show a query.

Does it make sense?
