Only option within FrameMaker is to take advantage of the limitation/bug whereby cross-references in text insets are not converted to active links. As mentioned by Lin and Richard, it is possible to store multiple insets in a single FM file by having multiple text frames with separate flows. With my FrameMaker-to-Acrobat TimeSavers add-on, it is possible to turn on a function that "disables" external cross-references pointing to a specific file/path (link is removed but text/formatting remains intact) -- see http://www.microtype.com/TimeSavers.html (Links/General screen; "Suppress x-refs when path or file name includes: ....."). Nothing has to be changed in the FM files or book; only a string included in the path or file name has to be specified in the settings. For example, the source FM file to which your cross-references point can have a "_NoLink" suffix, or you may store the FM file in a folder that has "_NoLink" in its name.
