If I book it now for a total of 150k miles and later the dates I want become available for economy can I get the 50k miles back from Continental?
Welcome to FT!
I'd call CO and see if they can find the dates you want at the redemption level that interests you. They can always check partner airlines too.
There's nothing stopping you from canceling a reward ticket then rebooking it later. Of course, inventory changes from second-to-second, so there's no guarantee that things will work out the way you want.
