Firefox provides the option to Remember search and form history under custom settings. I want the browser to remember search history but not remember form history. Is there a way to separate these two settings?

No, that isn't possible, this setting only controls one browser.formfill.enable pref in about:config. I'm not sure if it helps if you set browser.formfill.expire_days => 0 and set privacy.clearOnShutdown.formdata => true in about:config (i.e. use "Clear history when Firefox closes").
