I wouldn't leave the clutch in. You have a bearing not designed for continuous duty called the throwout bearing holding the clutch disengaged, running like that will kill the bearing and require expensive transmission work. If you can't stop your car with the engine off in a timely fashion, I recommend that you invest in a vacuum pump from the salvage yard (apparently the turboed cars tended to have them,) plus you don't need to think about anything but stopping.
