But would it throw off the pitcher of record? I don't pay attention to it, but once your team gets the lead, my old pitcher would still be the pitcher who was "pitching" at the time we took the lead, no? I don't think if I brought my closer in while my team was still hitting, he would get a win and a save.

Incorrect. (I found this out the hard way.). The pitcher you inserted would be the pitcher of record.
EDIT: No, your closer would not get a win and a save. In my scenario, he would be the pitcher of record and get the win.
