Why would you wanna do that?

Anyway, from the wiki (SCREEN command):

window mode flags

GFX_NO_SWITCH (&h04) prevents the user from changing to fullscreen or to windowed mode by pressing Alt+Enter

Some games don't work very well in windowed mode - or vice-versa.  For example, on a high-res screen a 320x200 game doesn't look very good in windowed mode.  Although I personally like being able to switch back and forth, it does seem a bit unprofessional to allow that.  Probably better to have such switching implemented on some Options menu.
