I have two Gmail accounts. When I click on an email address in a website, it automatically starts a full screen (or wide) mode.
Is there anyway to change to my secondary profile without exiting this tab?

No Gmail will make a duplicate contact out of it, which you will have to merge 'manually'.
Luckily this is a very easy process, though it may take some time if you don't keep up with it.
Gmail even helps you find duplicates if their name doesn't change much. Else you just have to select them both and click [Merge]

As Al mentions in the comments, there is no way to make new compose default to showing the whole email address. You'll have to switch back to old compose for the default feature.
You can however double-click the name tag/chip which will show you the contact info (name and email address) that is used. Double-clicking to see the email information is faster than hovering and waiting for the contact card to appear.
Double-clicking will also select the email information for you automatically so you can copy paste elsewhere if you need to. Clicking away will revert back to the name-only tag/chip.

The "New Message" window is opened using the Google/Gmail account you are currently logged in as. It does not seem to be possible to switch to a "delegated" account at this stage.
However, you can set up the "other" account as an email address from which you can "Send mail as" (in Settings > Accounts and Import) and then you can pick the other email address from the "From" dropdown when composing the email.
