I’m calling FB.api(…) with an FQL query whenever an input‘s keyup event is fired. Is it possible to cancel the previous request to query the (newer) updated query, or do I have to wait it out?

If the request is already sent, then it could not be canceled.
What you could do is to delay sending the request by using
setTimeout, and cancel the previous delay when the next keyup event fired.
