According to the documentation, every time you make a call

$ionicModal.fromTemplate(...)
$ionicModal.fromTemplateUrl(...)

will receive a new Promise of ionicModal. The method you are looking for is the isShown.

if (ionicModal.isShown()) { // se a janela está visível ...
    ionicModal.hide(); // fecha ...
}

What can happen is that more than one place may want to create these modals and you will not have access to these references, in this case you need to implement a proper mechanism to control how many modals are open (make a Factory that instantiates these modals and saves the references, or, use the events that the $ionicModal emits) and/or if you want to overwrite a modal.
