            }]
        ,
        }); 
        }

You can do it via the marker property:

states: {
     hover: {
          enabled: false
     }
}

You would access this via chart.series[i].marker.states.hover I believe. So, I would think that on-click of Add Line button you would fire off the call to disable the hover on the series markers. Then, when done drawing your lines you would need to turn "off" the Add Line button and fire a call to re-enable the hover.
