Is there an option for the dbxcli will support a pause and resume syncing?

You'd need to discuss that on the GitHub page for the project as dbxcli is not an official Dropbox project.
other than dbxcli is there any other way to do it maybe with switches on dropbox.exe?

There are no switches for dropbox.exe to pause or resume syncing, and no way to control that programmatically.
Hi @Frank P E., thanks for posting!
Currently, there aren't any methods for directly pausing or resuming syncing with the Dropbox executable itself, only within the app when it's running.
If you wish, you can suggest this change for others to vote on, so the dev team can look into this in future!
dbxcli does not control Dropbox desktop sync, so it does not have a pause/resume syncing option.
dbxcli
It is a command-line tool for individual Dropbox API operations like put, get, ls, etc. You can stop a running transfer and run the command again later, but there is no background sync queue in dbxcli to pause or resume.
put
get
ls
