You can set up a user so that they can send but don't receive
emails.  But not on a case by case basis if that's what you're
looking for.  Either the account will receive emails or it
won't.  A number of people are subscribed multiple times
to the CLUE lists, so that they can send from their different
email addresses.  Typically, only one of those accounts is
set up to receive mail.  I think the feature was primarily
designed for people to turn off list mail while on vacation
without having to unsubscribe and resubscribe.

Fwiw,
