Is there anyway I can extract a subset of atoms from a cpt file, like I can

keep all the remainder of the state information, so I can feed this back into grompp with a modified topology and "continue" a run without the ligand.


Nope. For very good reason, too. If you remove the ligand, you don't preserve the state of anything in a meaningful way. For instance, you're removing degrees of freedom from a thermostat (presumably), so you're actually perturbing the system, not maintaining it.

The closest you might come would be to dump out your desired group from a .trr file and preserve velocities, but you also lose all of the information from the .edr file for the reasons described above.
