Yes. What passdb do you use? For example in SQL query you could use %s
variable. http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables

You could also use an extra deny=yes passdb, for example:

passdb passwd-file {
  deny = yes
  args = /etc/deny.%Ls
}

and then create /etc/deny.imap having a list of usernames not allowed to
log in with imap.
