It's a problem. Without a letter of release, you can't work for anyone else under your current visa expires.

They would find out when they applied for your new E2 visa, as it would be denied.

OK I tried doing what you want to do before and its almost impossible. Recruiters don't want to deal with someone unless you've already told your boss you're going to quit and he's OK with giving you a release letter. Basically just stick it out a bit and then quit before bothering spending much time looking for another job.
