Hi there,
my external company that will include IAT tasks (web, Inquisit 4) to other surveys wants to make sure that participants can exit from the tasks anytime they want. Is it possible? and if so, how? Can I include any exit button on the screen?

You can't easily include an exit-button, but any script (including those run via the web) can be terminated by pressing CTRL+Q. You can also specify an additional key combination by specifying the /quitcommand attribute in the script's <defaults> element:

You would let participants know about the way to terminate the script by mentioning it somewhere in the instructions or displaying a reminder on-screen.
