Yes, you can arrange to have the transaction be rolled back instead of being committed, and you can avoid having exceptions reflected to the user. But no, there is no setting to tell Django to automatically rollback on error and not propagate the exception resulting from the error: your code must do that.
First you have to use manual transaction management, so that you control when the updates get committed. If you use the default autocommit behavior you cannot roll back already completed updates as they will be automatically committed as they are executed. Then you need to be aware, in your code, of what statements might raise exceptions. You must write your code to explicitly handle the cases where exceptions may be raised and "do the right thing" instead of having them just propagate up and be reported as server errors.
