Good question. I think I would rule that since the cards you draw from D3P2
are technically not part of your hand, you would be able to win that way. It
says "any time", which does not force you to complete D3P2 before doing it.
But that's just my opinion.
However, what really prompted me to respond was your mention of "creepers in
my hand". You should never have creepers in your hand; you play them
immediately as soon as you draw them. Now, limit your reference to just
keepers, and the hypothetical is still valid, but if creepers are involved
you wouldn't be able to win, because any creepers drawn during D3P2 would
immediately go in front of you before you had a chance to play GOWI.
