As foo is a static function you don’t need to specify the object, so you can use it outside the condition to correctly load it like this :
public function __construct(){
if( isset( $_GET["page"] ) && $_GET["page"] === 'edit-foo' ){
add_action( 'admin_init', array($this, 'init') );
}
add_action('wp_ajax_foo',array( 'MyPlugin/Classes/MyClassWithFooFunction', 'foo' ) );
}
init(){
... <- initalize $this->editable_item->item
}
