I have to create a sql 2008 database user that can backup and restore databases but NOT execute INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE.
Is it possible or the two operations are incompatible?

You will need to assign them the role of db_BackupOperator
to the login(s) to be able to do this.
They will be able to see the objects, but not the data in them or the code behind them.
