You can use ShapeMerge on your free form object and select a closed shape to either cutout of the object or integrate into the existing geometry (Cookie Cutter or Merge).

Collapse your geometry to Editable Poly and select Polygon and the group of polys bounded by your merged shape are selected by default. Then you can use EP's Extrude command to finish the form.
