I have jobs running in a supercomputer, when I've submitted a new one it has entered in waiting status (qw). This last job is priority in relation with the ones that are running which I don't want to kill. What I'd like to do is to pause them and let the important one to run. Is that possible?

In theory you could add a dependency on the lower priority jobs like qalter -Wdepend=afterok:
... Not sure if ordinary users can alter dependencies on their jobs. -
Is your cluster set up to allow job preemption and BLCR? – dbeer Jun 06 '14 at 17:03
