No. If you want to go from Regular Army to National Guard, you must first finish your active duty enlistment, then reenlist into the Guard - you cannot opt out of active duty during the time specified in your contract.

Not until your current enlistment expires. After that, you can reenlist into the National Guard and apply for an AGR position, although I can tell you they're not particularly easy to get.
