Of course but then your session is gone as well.
I did (as an experiment)
sage: p=maxima("2^128")
sage: p=p.next_prime()
sage: p=p*p
sage: p.factor()
The interpreter returns quickly but with no response. The maxima
process runs at 100% cpu time in the
background.
Subsequent maxima commands do nothing of course.
If you run maxima directly you can kill a lengthy command using ^C.
But that didn't seem to work in sage.
