Is it possible to get a list by url? Something like this.
Dim list As SP.List = ctx.Web.Lists.GetByURL("site")
If that isn't possible, is it possible to get the guId by using the page id?

Option 1. Get List by Url
The below solution demonstrates how to retrieve List by its Url, it consists of two steps:
- Get List Folder using
Web.GetFolderByServerRelativeUrlby specifying List Url - Get List by specifying
List idfrom Foldervti_listnameproperty
Code:
'1 step. Get List Folder
Dim listUrl As String = "/kb/Pages/"
Dim listFolder As Folder = ctx.Web.GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl(listUrl)
ctx.Load(listFolder.Properties)
ctx.ExecuteQuery()
Dim listId As Guid = New Guid(listFolder.Properties("vti_listname").ToString())
'2 step. Get List
Dim list As List = ctx.Web.Lists.GetById(listId)
ctx.Load(list)
ctx.ExecuteQuery()
Note: SharePoint 2013/Online is supported only
Option 2. Get List by Page Url

Dim pageFile = ctx.Web.GetFileByServerRelativeUrl("/kb/Pages/Welcome.aspx")
