After the gyp-crete is poured over my radiant floor tubing, can I consider it “finished” enough to call it flooring, perhaps staining, polishing, etc., until I can afford to intall real tile flooring later????????

Perhaps a call to the mfg. is in order. If you plan on setting tile on it at a later date, I would suggest strongly that you do not stain it, or for that matter, treat it in any fashion.
Depending on the time interval, you may want to invest in some carpeting. If not, just use some nice area rugs.
Whichever way you go, take precautions to avoid contamination of the surface. This would limit the bond strength when the tile does finally go in.
