At least, not through the TclForces command.

In short, you can't. And to say the truth, I can't see why you would want to.
When you're doing SMD, you're not doing ABF, and vice versa.

You can access internal variables of the ABF scripts through the ABF
namespace. For instance, $::ABF::xi is the current value of the ABF reaction
coordinate. I don't know what you want to achieve by doing this, but you may
be better off modifying the ABF code directly to suit your needs.
Best,
