You can't. You specify the build type during cmake-time, using
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug|Release|... And thats quite ok, because you
need different directories for the targets and the intermediate object
files anyway as those differ between release and debug. So its not a
problem to have

builddir/debug
builddir/release

and call cmake in each one using the right build type.
