Tested on Karmic - it doesn't work. Debug output:

It does something to the CD-ROM, causing it to disappear, but nothing else. The modem itself does not switch. Replugging the modem and doing 'eject sr1' Just Works (tm).

I suppose it'd be easier to use the simple and tested 'eject' command instead of debugging 'modem-modeswitch' and trying to figure out other alternative ways of ejecting a CD :)
