Yes. The acl "user" does not exists in Squid 2.1. You are probably
reading a older version of squid.conf. This ACL is renamed to ident, to
reflect what it really checks. It was renamed to avoid confusion with
proxy_auth acl type.
My intention was to have user as a alias for ident for the 2.1 release,
but apparently this got lost somewhere.

Contraty to whats said in squid.conf, 2.1.PATCH2 does not pay attention
to any usernames listed in a proxy_auth acl. It always matches every
user accepted by the authenticate_program as if you had written
REQUIRED.

Not unless you have some method of distinguishing these users without
having them to authenticate with a login+password. To selectively deny
people Squid has to know how to identify them.
