I think there were two such stretches:

1. 1986-88, and
2. 2001-04, except in this case the D became known as the Q and the Brighton Express service was also called the Q, except displayed in a diamond unlike the local service. When the north side tracks reopened in 2004, it was this "diamond Q" that ended up being replaced by the weekdays-only B.

If there was a period when the M was rerouted to 4th Ave and West End, leaving the Q and a D still on 6th Ave, then it must not been very short-lived, because the 1986 Manhattan Bridge service change brochures and the service advisory box on the map at the time seemed to suggest that the M was moved off the Brighton at the same time the north side tracks shut down. Part of it was so the TA could start work on rehabbing the Brighton Line itself.
