Unless you go to extraordinary length working under the car you run the risk of getting road debris, sand etc. in your coolant. I would not do this and put back into the engine. Everything is much more expensive than coolant.
I think what you're asking is there a way to prevent total loss? If this is the case you can clamp off the 2 main hoses to the radiators and at least save that volume.
Everything in the engine will drain when you pull the pump.
