Here are some possibilities, starting with the simplest:

Never ever!
Never in a million years!
Not on your life!
Not for all the tea in China!
I'd rather die than say yes!
Over my dead body!
No! A thousand times, No! (This last can be rather poetic.)

This sounds very odd to me. Do you know people who say this? I suppose I may have just never come across them. - MacFadden, AGO 8, 2010

"Over my dead body" is another good one, if you're trying to say "I'd never (....)"

MJ's list is excellent, but I'll add one only because it is pretty close to the original: "Never, repeat never, (will I ...)."
