I agree with Nicolai. No such feature in NBU.

Canceling jobs puts your data at risk. When a job is cancelled, the entire backup is discarded.
This says to me that NBU values your backed up data more than BE.

To prevent backups from running into working hours, have a careful look at schedule backup windows. 
The window in the schedule is called a start window - meaning as long as a backup can start within this window, it will be allowed to complete.

Sorry - Not that I know of.

Running backup jobs can be cancled by either the GUI or running bpdbjob (see tech note)
