This is possible using modes

Modes are hackish for this sort of thing (leader -> key -> enter).

This is why i wrote xgsk: https://github.com/edelkind/xgsk

It's a more generic option, and requires that, if you want to execute
window manager actions, you communicate back with your window manager
using IPC or EWMH (see `wmctrl`). i3 doesn't currently support either
of these _very well_, and the latter is barely supported at all. But
maybe it'll work for you.
