Sure.

Just put a field in, "no_discount" and set it to 1 for those items.
Then build an adjusted total based on that field.

Something like:

 [discount code=ENTIRE_ORDER interpolate=1]
                  $original = $s;
                  $d =(.25);
		  # 0 at end makes addition come out right
                  $adjtot = 
			[item-list]
				[if-field no_discount]
				[else] [item-price noformat] + [/else]
				[/if-field]
			[/item-list]
				0;
		
                  if ($adjtot <= 2499.99) {
		      $discounted = $adjtot * (1.0 - $d);
                  } elsif ($adjtot <= 4999.99) {
		      $discounted = $adjtot * (.95 - $d);
                  } elsif ($adjtot <= 9999.99) {
		      $discounted = $adjtot * (.90 - $d);
                  } elsif ($adjtot <= 19999.99) {
		      $discounted = $adjtot * (.88 - $d);
                  } elsif ($adjtot >= 20000.00) {
		      $discounted = $adjtot * (.85 - $d);
                  }
                  $difference = $original - $discounted;
                  return $discounted;
 [/discount]

I can't tell what you are doing there, but the key is to get the
adjusted total.
