I believe it would be possible to write a custom interceptor (see https://activemq.apache.org/interceptors) that rejected incoming messages and incoming connections. (Maybe rejecting incoming connections would be enough, because you can't send a message without an established connection.) If you restart the broker when you apply it, that should give you what you need.
Alternatively, you could put a reverse proxy such as Nginx in front of the broker, and then modify its configuration to disable/re-enable the OpenWire port. Then JMX and web console connections could go through but protocol connections would be stopped.
