In these modern times the “Imminent Over-run” drill should be negated by SOP’s, the on board LDR Calculations, Stabilised Approaches and correct touch down zone at the correct speed, if you get over the runway and it’s not working out, a Go-Around should be initiated.
Lots of “Should’s”. Unfortunately, we see a little to often, that something has gone amiss, the approach/landing is pushed beyond the limits and we see this type of accident occur again.
If a crew finds themselves in this predicament, they are a little off script so what they do now, while it may be a good idea, is uncharted territory.
The drill as you describe it sounds like the actions of the “Evacuation” Checklist
