No. Setting this variable programatically is an equivalent of "0"
prefix arg. Just try it yourself (replacing CANCELLED with whatever
todo keyword that normally triggers interactive note for you):
(let ((org-inhibit-logging 'note)) (org-todo "CANCELLED"))

Yes. Unfortunately, this note system is not very configurable. Though
your specific case is (somewhat awkwardly) covered. In org-add-log-note,
there is the following line:
(if (memq org-log-note-how '(time state))
The org-log-note-how is set in org-add-log-setup according to its args.
org-todo calls org-add-log-setup depending on the value of
org-inhibit-logging.
Thus, my suggestion.
And yes, it is cumbersome. We should re-implement the note system some
day in future.
Best,
Ihor
