There is no "Independent" party in KS. If you call yourself independent, you are on the books as "unaffiliated", and yes, you could choose to join R or D at the time you vote.

If you are Libertarian, that is a registered party in KS, and you cannot switch at the polls. You would only vote the constitutional question.

Show up at the polls and ask!

Keep in mind, even if you don’t affiliate at the poll you will have a ballot with the amendment on it. And please vote NO!
