If you have a hub, is it possible to cut someone's internet connection that is connected to it without actually pulling the cord?

Uhm. . . ok nevermind I'm not gonna ask why you would want to do this. However one way is if you are using MAC, you can have the router deny access to the computer's MAC address of choice.
Right I understand that a router can do but can a HUB do anything like that at all?

A hub is dumb...passive. Unless it is software monitored and controlled, you should not be able to regulate traffic. You CAN however, steal the IP address of a computer if you are using static IPs...which would effectively keep the computer off the network.
Five years...
Not sure what your internet connection is but if you are using a gateway router you can simply setup filter rule to prevent that computer from going out. As above a hub is a passive device.
