There is only one way way you can do that, if that's exactly what you
want:

  CFLAGS += $(CDEBUG)

  all: $(exe)
    ...

  debug:
          $(MAKE) CDEBUG=-Ddebug_mode

Thus, when you say "make debug" it re-invokes make with the CDEBUG flag
set.  When you just say "make", it runs the regular rules and CDEBUG is
not set.

If you don't want to use a reinvocation you must use a different
command-line syntax; say:

  ifdef DEBUG
  CFLAGS += -Ddebug_mode
  endif

  all: $(exe)
    ...

then you can run "make DEBUG=yes" or something.
