Well I think it would only be considered sleep paralysis if you are unable to move your physical body. Sleep paralysis isn't a prerequisit to rolling out, or shaking loose a dream body as the cusp put it. I would describe it as being awake and dreaming at the same time, sometimes I can see my room and a dream at the same time. I would consider it a lucid dream when you are entirley in your dream body and no longer aware of your physical body, but you can choose to define what exaclty a lucid dream is how ever you want.
