If the batter-runner walks to 1st base and turns past the bag or steps off in any way, is he eligible to be put out if he is tagged?

If so, there could be a potential play if the catcher elects to throw the ball to F3. Does this change the call by PU?
Just curious what call could or should be made.
Glad to hear anyones response but TimC.
Thanks.

In FED a Batter-Runner could be put out if tagged off the base after a non-intentional walk. Ball is dead during intentional walk. This would be BU call, not PU.
