As far as I know they don't have kill switches. I have an 01 civic and have never seen one. if its not in the manual or online then I would say no.

It would be kind of pointless for them to come stock with a killswitch because any thief could just get ahold of a manual and find out how it is activated.

2001+ civic all come with passive immobilizer security systems that are tied into the ecu. in the event the wrong chipped key is used, the car will cut fuel and ignition. its not great, and there are plenty of ways around it, but better than nothing. 01+ civics are not very popular to steal anyways.
