Check out the use of the supressionCommentFilter at http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/config_filters.html#SuppressionCommentFilter. You'll need to add the module to your checkstyle.xml
<module name="SuppressionCommentFilter"/>
and it's configurable. Thus you can add comments to your code to turn off checkstyle (at various levels) and then back on again through the use of comments in your code. E.g.
//CHECKSTYLE:OFF
public void someMethod(String arg1, String arg2, String arg3, String arg4) {
//CHECKSTYLE:ON
