I think it is unclear, what you are asking exactly. Please clarify.

Best,

Sound like you want a terminal mapping. I think :help tmap may give you what you want, but if you remap the colon, you'll have trouble if you need to use it in an actual command. You could either map the double colon (::) to do this or to insert an actual single colon:

tmap : <c-w>:

tnoremap :: :

Or, depending on which you prefer, reverse the two mappings.
