You can, with scripting, set `referenceToTagTreeComponent.getTree().enabled = false`.  
That will disable interactivity, but it does _not_ give the component any different appearance.  
You could probably ‘fake’ a disabled appearance with a custom property; using scripting or the `qualifiedValue` expression you could return a Bad\_Disabled quality (code 515) to render an overlay on the component (in addition to disabling it via scripting).
