If you want to be in S&P mode to finsish a QSO that you started by
pressing the RETURN key in CQ mode by accident, it seems the only
difference between actually being in the CQ mode and not is the 
sending of the QSL message (and maybe the S&P exchange).

I would press ESCAPE to stop the CW.  Press F1 to send my call.  Enter
the exchange, press F2 to send my exchange, then use Control-Enter to
log the QSO without sending any more CW.

Sure.
