An interviewer may not say you've failed, but it's common practice to cut an interview short when an interviewer believes the candidate is not up to snuff. I've been at more than one company where any interviewer is allowed to "cut him loose" when a candidate is obviously unqualified.
Why would it be different the other way around? The key is, of course, being polite and graceful about it. But I don't buy the argument that this is burning a bridge. There are plenty of fish in the sea, and it's unlikely that cutting an interview short is actually going to cause you problems in the future.
