I used to have such an option (to modify a user account) but, after a
CVS update, the option has disappeared.
When I was able to modify the user (before CVS update) there was no
option to debarre a user.

The options I have now is to Delete, Change Password or Modify User
Flags. In the Modify User Flags option I tried to untick the "Borrow
books" option but after the changes was done, the user could still
borrow books....

I think so... Most of the fields present in the borrowers table doesn't
seem to be configurable via the intranet interface :(
