OK you could do this in code level , 

User singleUser=UserLocalServiceUtil.getUser(userId)
singleUser.setStatus(WorkflowConstants.STATUS_DENIED);
UserLocalServiceUtil.updateUser(singleUser);

So basically setting User Status to either WorkflowConstants.STATUS_DENIED, WorkflowConstants.STATUS_EXPIRED or WorkflowConstants.STATUS_INACTIVE will do the work of deactivating particular User.

But you need to research on the aftermath effect of these status field.

User Management in Liferay is global - to the whole portal. You authenticate to the portal, thus a deactivated user can't be authenticated to the portal.

You can make users members of Organizations or site - and this membership (or other organization- or site-level roles) can be used to provide them with permissions.

If you want them to be able to sign in, don't deactivate them. If you don't want them to access a certain organization, make the content of that organization available to members only - and exclude the user from the members of that organization.
