no you prolly have a blown head gasket what you need to do is pressure test the coolant system and if the car is over heating check the coolant and see if the fans are kicking ond you dont need to drive it much when it is running hot hondas are tough but they will only take so much

If you can get a good deal on another engine. Go for it. Or fix the one you have. I wouldn't suggest driving it until it smokes worse. Not exactly good for the environment and could be a possible ticket.
