Yep, it's easy. In the retry section of your Exim configuration file,
just list an entry of:

    #Domain        Error        Retries
    #---------------------------------------


    *        quota


By leaving the retries field blank, it will cause exim to immediately
bounce the message and not attempt any retries on quota errors.

If you want to restrict immediate bounces to only certain domains,
modify the wildcard to the specific domain(s) required.
