If it happened because of the thermostat failure, you need to replace the thermostat and then drive the car. Other things might cause overheating too.

Is the thermostat replaced by the coolant bypass solenoid?
No, the thermostat and the coolant bypass solenoid serve different functions in a vehicle's cooling system.

They work together but are not interchangeable components.
