I think this can be achieved in the following method:

 

Onclick of any of the checkbox, Disable all other checkboxes, by javascript.

 

There is an attribute named "disabled" for <apex:inputcheckbox/>

 

 

Please let me know if you see success with this and also let me know the failures in case of any

this code is some what helpful to you...but not the best part of doing the same.. as this code contains some assumptions like the id of the checkbox component is in the format like "j_id0:frm:j_id2:j_id3:4:selectLine1".....if your inputcheckbox is inside the page,form,pageblock and pageblocktable this code will work....if you have any other subsections you need to change the spit code in the javascript



<apex:page standardController="account" recordSetVar="acts">

&lt;script&gt;
function blow(cbid,bln){
var x = cbid;

var x1 = x.split(':');

var firstpart = x1[0]+":"+x1[1]+":"+x1[2]+":"+x1[3]+":";
var secondpart = ":"+x1[5];
var mys = "{!acts}";
mys = mys.split(',');

for(var i =0; i< mys.length;i++){
if(x1[4] != i){

document.getElementById(firstpart+i+secondpart).disabled = true;

}
if(bln == false)
document.getElementById(firstpart+i+secondpart).disabled = false;

}



}


&lt;/script&gt;




<apex:form id="frm">
<apex:pageBlock>
<apex:pageBlockTable value="{!acts}" var="a">
<apex:column >
<apex:inputCheckbox value="{!a.active__c}" onchange="blow(this.id,this.checked)" id="selectLine1"/>
</apex:column>
<apex:column value="{!a.name}" />

</apex:pageBlockTable>
</apex:pageBlock>
</apex:form>


</apex:page>

basically this is a kind of reference for you to implement according to your scenario

This is simple, it works, and you can use it with multple checkbox series to unselect all checkbox in the series except the one you checked.  The onclick event passes the checked instance to the unCheckOther Javascript function.  unCheckOther will uncheck all checkboxes in the named series, which in this case is "checkedone".  Finally, the function will turn on the checkbox that should be seleted; cb.checked.  This also gives you the ability to ping your controller from the click event with the actionSupport event.
       
            <apex:column >
                        <apex:inputCheckbox value="{!a.selected}" id="checkedone" onclick="unCheckOther(this)">
                            <apex:actionSupport event="onclick" action="{!getSelectedEmails}"/>
                        </apex:inputCheckbox>
                    </apex:column> 

    <script type="text/javascript">
        function unCheckOther(cb)
            {
                var inputElem = document.getElementsByTagName("input");                    
                for(var i=0; i<inputElem.length; i++)
                {            
                    if(inputElem[i].id.indexOf('checkedone') != -1)
                        if (inputElem[i].checked = true)
                            inputElem[i].checked = false;
                }
                cb.checked = true;
            }
    </script>
