Recently whenever i talk my digastric muscle pulls hard. over time could this make my chin/ mandible grow or "remodel" downwards and backwards?

Unusual : It would be extremely where unusual that this would cause a remodeling of your chin since you're an adult and your bones or form. Consult dentist or oral surgeon for specific diagnosis and treatment
