Could the Apollo astronauts have done an eva, from the Command Module, during the flight to or from the Moon?

They did. Apollo 15, 16, and 17 has an EVA to recover film from cameras in the Scientific Instrument Module Bay (SIMBay) on the Service Module to bring back inside.
This table, linked, shows all the Apollo EVA's.
Table of EVAs
Worden (Apollo 15), Mattingly (Apollo 16), and Evans on Apollo 17 spent about 3 hours total on EVA.
Some good articles on these deep space EVA's are here:

Exactly. I seem to recall we've answered this question before. In fact, it was Deke Slayton himself who ordered that it be made possible, and thus the wrench to open the CM hatch was added to the LM repair kit.

Given that it was possible to open the hatch from the inside for the EVAs that actually happened, seems like you'd only need a wrench if the guy in the CSM was incapacitated. quora.com/… points out that if you did this, your "incapacitated" and thus presumably un-suited CSM pilot would become a dead CSM pilot. Still, the other two potentially make it home.
