MAIN allows compression but not out-of-line storage. (Actually, out-of-line storage will still be performed for such columns, but only as a last resort when there is no other way to make the row small enough to fit on a page.)

Why do you want to do that?
It is not possible to completely disable the usage of toast tables, but maybe explaining the real reason of you wanting that helps us to give you another solution.
Even if I set storage to plain for all the columns? Will then toast be used for something else?
