You're missing a semicolon after the "C".  That's the reason you get

If I understand your question, the answer is "no": you can't execute
the front part of an "if" until the "fi" has been read.  See my
previous email "fully parsed before executed."

(Well, you could switch to csh, which does execute every line as it
goes along, even in complex structures.  But no, not in zsh.)
