You should be able to use the Presystem Request Program Exit to get control
and test what your user is currently doing.  You could then block them from
System Request selectively.  This exit is documented in the Work Management
category of System APIs.

Other APIs that may be of interest would be Retrieve Output Information
(QWSRTVOI) to determine what the last display file record format written
was and Retrieve Call Stack (QWVRCSTK) to determine the current call stack
and what function they might be in.

Is there any way to prevent a user from using ALT-SYSREQ while in a certain
function/screen?

I am trying to put together a use detection monitor for a break glass type
user profile. I have it askoing for the users "real" user id and password,
validting with the handle APIs, and sending usage notifcation e-mails, but
I need to prevent the user from being able to ALT-SYSREQ out to bypass it.
