not quite what you want, but if you have DEBUG = True you can use

from django.db import connection
connection.queries

__str__(self)
|      Returns the query as a string of SQL with the parameter values
|      substituted in.
|      
|      Parameter values won't necessarily be quoted correctly, since that is
|      done by the database interface at execution time.
