Past the valves into the cylinder

No, fortunately, there's no path going that way, other than to whatever degree the valve stem seals leak. Otherwise all the oil in the crankcase would end up going that way in a matter of just a few minutes of running.
Coolant is DEATH to oil. It turns it into something powdery and gross that doesn't lubricate. Change it ASAP.
