Is it possible to lock the users into a single app on the clover. Not allowing them to exit out of the app? Thanks

The version of Android running on Clover Station, Mobile, and Mini do not support Android's screen pinning feature if that's what you are referring to.
One option is to write your app as a home screen app. In a nutshell, it responds to the home button and becomes the device's launcher app. The merchant has the option of using your app as the default home screen app from thereon out (they won't be prompted whether to use your app or the default Clover launcher, but the choice is up to them). This does not stop other activities from running in the foreground if they so happen to get started in some way other than the launcher (e.g., from a notification).
That being said, this isn't something we normally allow for obvious reasons. We'd expect you to have a prior relationship with the merchant (or be developing on the merchant's behalf in the first place).
You can email dev@clover.com for more information on how to proceed.
Yes, you can lock your Android device to just one application is possible. For Android devices, Single Application Mode in SureLock is the equivalent to iOS Guided Access Mode. It locks your Android device to just one application, hides bottom navigation bar, prevents access to device settings and notifications and also disables hardware buttons. You can use this feature in its trial version for as long as you want.
