Temporary deactivating a keyfob
#1
I have a special case, I need to deactivate a keyfob for some time, then reactivate it.

I don't have access to the key but don't want the person that has it to borrow the car without my consent (long story).

So I would need to "block" it from Orbit, is that possible?

I have not heard such a thing but I think you've already thought about this. 
You could delete all the keys associated to the car. It wouldn't matter if you have them with you or not. Then pair back only the ones you want. 
The other key becomes useless until you pair it again.

One method is described in the owners manual - "If you lock the car while a key is still inside, the key is temporarily deactivated. It will be activated again when you unlock the car with another valid key."
