No, unfortunately it's not possible right now, and since the logs are configured in the frontend, you cannot even use the backend to make a difference.

I think that the simplest solution would be to implement something like "log disable if <acl>" which would work both in the frontend and in the backend.

I understand your requirement and in my opinion it really makes sense to log only dynamic pages. I'm adding that on the TODO list.
