Hello,
Anyone knows is it's possible to live resize a partition and it's
filesystem?
I'm working on some OpenBSD cloud templates and I need them to be -
among others - "self-resizable". I.e. the main template will be 8 or
10 GB whereas the destination disk may be larger than that; the OS
should expand it's partition to match the entire disk.

Not to my knowledge, Lucien. I recall that disklabel(8) prevents
resizing a
mounted partition, and the man page for growfs(8) explicitly states that
the filesystem must be unmounted and that fsck(8) must follow its use
before
mounting.
