silicon sealant around window should bond it in place.
Then peel off when new window arrives.

Good luck.

Buy a piece of acrylic glass at the DIY shop and some silicone sealant.
Possibly you have to take the window off first or use an other way of temporary fixation like for any other glue job.

Or the very temporary easy way: duct tape on inside and outside of the crack plus around the window. Less rigid though.

Duct tape around the window might give you a chance to seal a piece of acrilyc glass with silicone on the cracks in the main centre part of the window. Once that's dry finish the sides of the window with sealant.
Not beautiful, but it's just untill the new window arrived.
