Answer

It is possible to get the GPS Time, independent of the current output mode of the MTi-G using the message ReqUTCTime. The message is accepted in both config state and in measurement state.
It is currently only listed in the MT Low-Level Communication Documentation in the XKF Filter Messages of Chapter 6.

ReqUTCTime 
 Direction To MT
 MID 96 (0x60)

 Request UTC Time from sensor 

UTC Time  
 Direction To host
 MID 97 (0x61)
 DATA UTCTime (12 bytes)

 Contains UTC Time 

 DATA (B) Unit Description
 0 ns Nanoseconds of second, range 0 .. 1.000.000.000
 4 y Year, range 1999 .. 2099
 6 month Month, range 1..12
 7 d Day of Month, range 1..31
 8 h Hour of Day, range 0..23
 9 min Minute of Hour, range 0..59
 10 s Seconds of Minute, range 0..59
 11 - 0x01 = Valid Time of Week
   0x02 = Valid Week Number
   0x04 = Valid UTC
