No you can not stop the post office from putting them in your box. For some reason people blame the post office for doing their job.

Just discard them after shredding them of course. Do not reply at all. If you do they know you are alive and will continue to send more. Many credit card applications are standard rate mail, meaning that if you were no longer at the address the post office recycles the paper, and the company has no idea if you exist.
The other suggestions about Business Reply are reasonable as long as not taken to extremes. I believe some companies are stopping the mailing of applications because it is not a very efficient way of getting new cardholders.

You might try this idea from a quote I saw on bash.org:

1. Save every Free Credit Card Offer you get, Put it in pile A
2. Save every Free Coupon You get, put that in pile B
3. Now open the credit card mail from pile A and find the Business
Reply Mail Envelope.
4. Take the coupons from pile B and stuff them in the envelope you hold
in your hand.
5. Drop the stuffed to the brim envelopes in your mail and walk away
whistling.
I have now received two phone calls from the credit card companies
telling me that they received a stuffed envelope with coupons rather
then my application. They informed me that it they are not pleased that
they footed the bill for the crap I sent them. I reply with "It says
Business Reply Mail" I'm suggesting coupons to you to ensure that your
business is more successful. They promptly hang up on me.
Now, I did this for about a month before it got boring, so I got an
added idea! I added exactly 33 cents worth of pennies to the envelope
so they paid EXTRA due to the weight. I got a call informing me about
the money, I said it was a mistake and I demanded my change back. After
yelling at the clerk and then to the supervisor they agreed to my
demands and cut me a check for the money. I hold in my hand at this
very moment a check from GTE Visa for exactly 33 cents.

On one I got recently there was a box to check if I did not want them anymore. It is small print and was in the middle of the page on that one.
