Yes, you can stop any package from upgrading by excluding it in the yum
configuration file for the repository it comes from. For example you
would add something like this:

exclude=kernel,kernel-devel

at the end of the description of the repository in /etc/yum.repos.d/
where the kernel packages come from.
