Unfortunately this is not currently easy to accomplish with Squid as
icap_access is being evaluated early on the request only with no access
to the response information, forming the ICAP processing chain of the
request/response before forwarding is started.

In most ICAP setups this decision is usually made by the ICAP server
using the preview function of ICAP. This allows the ICAP server to
promptly say "thanks but I am not interested in processing this
message". So perhaps you can configure your icap antivirus server to
scan according to your guidelines instead.
