1. Is there a way to check quota on mailbox at smtp_data time.
Yes. This is well documented, see:

Actually, this is well documented _at the time of local delivery_ - which
is, of course, after the DATA phase.
I'm not sure how you could do this as part of an ACL.
No, me too.
Surely you'd be
better letting the transport do its' job, keeping hold of the message
until the quota is below the limit or bouncing the message after a set
time according to your retry rules?
Well, no. That can cause collateral spam. Especially is the mailbox is full
of spam! Ideally, it would be nice to be able to temporarily reject the
message, rather than bounce it. However, that would be best done at RCPT,
not DATA. Of course, you won't have the message size at that point...
