When a judge accepts a plea agreement and imposes a sentence can the sentence be withdrawn because the defendant sighs and smiles with relief?
Yes, but that would likely be grounds for an appeal by the convicted person. The trial, including sentencing is not complete until all the information has been entered into the court record and the judge adjourns the court, if court was not adjourned the judge could indeed change the sentencing terms.
