If for managerial reasons I'm am developing an app that has not been designed with iOS7 in mind(the notion of supporting iOS7 wasn't apparent until I upgraded to XCode5 and tested the app in the simulator running iOS7), can I restrict my app to devices not running iOS7?
I know it's possible to change the app to support iOS 7 but we're already in the testing phase and it's not my decision how the app is made.

No, you can not restrict your app to devices not running iOS7.
You could check if the device is running with iOS 7 and through some kinde of exception or show an error message. Of course you won't get it through apples revision.
But it might work if you only deliver it to local devices.

You can compile your application using Xcode 4, which will mark the binary to run in a compatibility mode on an iOS 7 device.
I'm assuming you want the app to still work on an iOS 7 device, just not with an iOS 7 user interface.
