How can I end ncurses without ending the C++ program?

I've been trying to make an ncurses program that will end the ncurses mode at a certain point, and resume in normal terminal mode, but still keeping the program running. Is it possible? endwin(); ends the program. Here is my code (don't worry about the functions, I made them before):

clear();
refresh();
endwin();
boxmessage("STEP 1");
consolewrite("Removing Popularity Contest...");
std::vector<std::string> removepak;
removepak.push_back("popularity-contest");
removepackages(removepak);
