I'm not aware of any existing clocking code functionality that does what
you describe.  I used to get around this by making clocking in and
clocking out actions completely manual so even if I mark a task done the
clock continues until I explicitly clock in something else.  This helped
me build a good habit of clocking in stuff on time.

Now I have a new setup[*1*] that automatically clocks in the default task
whenever org normally clocks out.  It doesn't sound like this is really
what you are looking for though.  In my case I would clock in the new
task and manually move the completed clock line from the default task to
the new task in this situation.
