You can use ComplexExpand[...], But is this what you are looking for ?

In[17]:= Simplify[Conjugate[Sqrt[-(t Cos[2 kx] Cos[ky])+Cos[kx]+M]],-(t
Cos[2 kx] Cos[ky])+Cos[kx]+M>0]//ComplexExpand

Out[17]= ((M+Cos[kx]-t Cos[2 kx] Cos[ky])^2)^(1/4) Cos[1/2 Arg[M+Cos[kx]-t
Cos[2 kx] Cos[ky]]]-I ((M+Cos[kx]-t Cos[2 kx] Cos[ky])^2)^(1/4) Sin[1/2
Arg[M+Cos[kx]-t Cos[2 kx] Cos[ky]]]
