No. Amazon very much prefers uptime over cost cutting; they rather have your website up than read a story about a bill limiter taking you offline. They also tend to be quite lenient on unintended bills.
Additionally, bill cutting is not that easy. Should they shut down current services? Stop sending in the middle of a newsletter? Delete your S3 Storage? Even then, a large company might accumulate hundreds or thousands of dollars within a second ; even if they decide to cut at all cost, minimal delays might break the limit.
I fully agree that it sucks for experimenting; it is very much the reason I don't have an AWS account. But I can see why they don't have it.
