The scene is parsed 100% before the render starts. So, no, from the SDL
you cannot control the interruption of the rendering.

On Unix/linux, you can send a signal to the process, and it will catch
it, and stop a few moments after (the front-end thread will stop giving
works to the back-ends' ones... sort of, then collect them all and exit:
if you are rendering at 1pph or less, a few moments can still take a
long time)

I do not know for the window's port. I used to see a "stop" button
somewhere.

Notice that interrupting a render will not, on any platform, provide a
partial picture-file output. NOT.
