There is a version of sheets in both App Stores and I believe you can run the android version on chrome OS

Are these versions reimplemtations or like so many other apps just packaged websites? And are they full featured?

AFAIK the mobile versions are different, since the whole UX is designed for touch control and small screens. It's not full featured, there's a bunch of stuff that you can't do, or are very hard to reach, but that's the limitation of mobile control.

While you technically can run it on ChromeOS through the Android emulation, it's still a mobile app and you're far better off running the web version.
