Partially.

You can remove all toolbars with DCOP or by tweaking konquerorrc
You can go fullscreen with DCOP as well

dcop konqueror '' getWindows
dcop konqueror konqueror-mainwindow#1/action/fullscreen activate

(use konqueror-PID in case there are multiple ones running)

Disabling the right mouse is not yet possible, most kiosks don't have a
mouse do they? :-)

I am also investigating a way to make sure Konqueror never opens a new
window (always using the same view) or a Opera like window-taskbar within
Konqueror itself.
