I think so, please see https://slurm.schedmd.com/resource_limits.html
and look for the MaxWallDurationPerJob limit.  You have to set that
limit on the user's association.
IIUC the limit in the assoc can't override the one in the partition.
So the definition will have to be reversed: set the partition limit to
the max allowed (1h) and limit all users except one in the assoc.

You are right! According to the resource_limits page the limits have a specified precedence. But now I see that there is an exception listed:

Note: The precedence order specified above is respected except for the following limits: Max[Time|Wall], [Min|Max]Nodes. For these limits, even if the job is enforced with QOS and/or Association limits, it can't go over the limit imposed at Partition level, even if it listed at the bottom. So the default for these 3 types of limits is that they are upper bound by the Partition one. This Partition level bound can be ignored if the respective QOS PartitionTimeLimit and/or Partition[Max|Min]Nodes flags are set, then the job would be enforced the limits imposed at QOS and/or association level respecting the order above.
