While the answer is in all likelihood "no", the question is poorly
formulated; I read it a few times over and I'm still confused about what
exactly you're looking for (and I work on force fields on a daily basis).
Do you mean "exceptions" instead of "interactions"? Also, if you want an
R^-12 repulsion without R^-6 attraction (which raises questions about the
rationale behind the force field), you also have to worry about whether
NAMD lets you specify them separately (I honestly don't know). Finally,
your "for example" link doesn't work; it likely relies on form data that
is not contained in the URL.
