To answer your question specifically - you'd have to untie from the rope and tie back into the other end (keeping yourself clipped in to the anchor of course). Taking turns leading is quicker as you can just grab the gear and keep climbing. Also, a number of accidents have happened when people have untied and then forgotten to tie back in (usually getting distracted halfway through tying the knot). I seem to recall that one Chockstone member's rope fell off his harness halfway through a pitch when he did this!
