Yes
Unload the USB modules from the kernel. For example, if you do an lsmod:
$ /sbin/lsmod |grep hci
uhci_hcd 23633 0
ohci_hcd 22725 0
ehci_hcd 32333 0
You will see these modules. The uhci_hcd and ohci_hcd modules are for
the USB 1.0/1.1 and ehci_hcd is for USB 2.0. Remove these modules with
the rmmod command:
# rmmod ehci_hcd
You can blacklist the modules by messing with udev to prevent them from
loading in the first place.
