Indeterminate tomatoes... [botany]

Hello.

Germinated indoors in January, now my oxheart tomato plants are fruiting reaching 1.30m.   Read about trimming, topping, thinning, pruning...

Question.  Can an adult fruiting tomato plant be topped down like at 60 - 80 cm height keeping its roots intact and moved indoors during the winter season, kept from too much growth by pruning; to have a mature and well grown plant ready to resume production in next spring, with no need to wait 4 months from seed to become just a young plant, perhaps even fruiting indoors meanwhile ?

The point is to keep alive a plant that otherwise would freeze-die in order to gain/save future time.
