No. It can't be stored as fat. Sugar can't be converted to fat. You would convert the sugar to glucose which is subsequently converted to glycogen which is stored in muscle. The 500 calories you "used up" is expended as energy. The remaining glycogen in muscle is fuel reserve.
Ok, but storing glycogen long term is not good either.

This is why I don't think there is one size fits all solution.

Avoid/limit sugar and you’ll be better off
Nonsense. Avoid/limit dietary fat and you won't get fat, diabetic, heart disease, etc. 
You can eat limitless sugar as long as your dietary fat is very low, and you'll be far better off.
