I have a 97 talon and I use my car for bass competitions so I have about 700 pounds in the hatch, I have 7 big batteries two 18s walled and two big amps my car sags bad. is their anyway to lift it?

Lift the car or stiffen up rear suspension? For simply lifting something like taller springs or spring spacers can work. For stiffer suspension, stiffer springs are needed. If you get coilover suspension, it will have plenty of adjustment in it so you can raise/lower the car as equipment configuration inside changes. Also seems like it's easier to change spring rate on a coilover.

Could also move some stuff closer to the front so weight is spread a bit more even. Not sure if you are using passenger seat. If not, that area is big enough for most, if not all batteries and amps.

yeah, I'd say coilovers with a much stiffer spring rate. Then you can set the wheel gap more or less right where you want it.

700lbs in the trunk of these cars is quite a bit, it must be bottomed out completely.

I dont think any springs (that are bolt on) are going to hold that much added weight. Have you looked into any air bag setups? It would complement your stereo

Great thing about coilover sleeves, you can put any shock that is made for the car and use any spring that is sized for the sleeves. I run GC and Koni mix with the GC spec Eibachs that came with it that is rated for about 200 lbs/inch. If you step it up to about 400 it should work.
