if you mean something like that:

 

the definition of this field looks like:

				array(
					'type' => 'categories',
					'label' => $this->l('Parent category:'),
					'name' => 'id_parent',
					'values' => array(
						'trads' => array(
							 'Root' => $root_category,
							 'selected' => $this->l('Selected'),
							 'Collapse All' => $this->l('Collapse All'),
							 'Expand All' => $this->l('Expand All')
						),
						'selected_cat' => $selected_cat,
						'input_name' => 'id_parent',
						'use_radio' => true,
						'use_search' => false,
						'disabled_categories' => array(4),
						'top_category' => Category::getTopCategory(),
						'use_context' => true,
					)
				),
