I have a business class ticket that goes from JNB-CDG then CDG-YYZ.

Both arriving and departing flights are from the teminal 2E.

Can I use the 2E lounge to take a shower, get refreshed up, and then exit immigration to have brunch in Paris for the day, and then come back to 2E and take my connecting flight?

Are there any other tips or recommendations?

Yes, it's feasible. 2E has 3 different concourses (K, L and M). AF has a lounge in each of the concourses. When you arrive from JNB, go to the concourse where your flight to YYZ departs from and gp to the lounge there. The "difficult part" will start when you want to leave for town as there will be no signage for exit as you are not supposed to leave from there. You'll have to ask how to reach the exit way to immigration.
