Yes. Put your TV behind a second router, manually assign IP address and route to your local network, and don't give the router an upstream gateway. Then any packets the TV might send even to a plain IP address will be dropped at its router before reaching your main router.

One can also just run an open source router/firewall software and do this by clicking a few buttons. OPNsense or OpenWRT get the job done wonderfully.
