If you were able to deny the user access to submit, their data would definitely be lost while they went to go sign up for an account. Would it be okay that users have to completely fill out the form again after they have an account?

I can't think of a way to do this using the built-in validation, nor with the Webform Validation module. You could however, accept the submission anyway and just tell the user to sign-up for an account in the confirmation message. You can theme the confirmation message as described in THEMING.txt to show a different message based on if the user was logged in or logged out.

If you really want to show the form even if a user can't fill it out, it's possible with custom code. You'd have to place some code similar to this in an a hook_node_view():

$node->content['webform'] = drupal_get_form('webform_client_form_' . $node->nid, $node, NULL);

Though as stated in the submission guidelines, I generally don't help with custom coding solutions, so you may need to take it from there.

thnks a lot for your valuable information about the post. but i am a newbee.. so coding is difficult.. the first thing what you said is ok for me.. the data getting lost when they go for sign up is not a problem.. anonymous user should not sumbit until and unless they register.. the theming idea u said about, i tried. but it reflects for all users(authenticated too).. is there any possible way to implement the first two lines u said about..?
thanks in advance.

Unfortunately I don't provide custom coding support in the Webform issue queue.

i tried to work with theming part. the confirmation template file has three variables.. $sid,$confirmation message,$node. but i tried with 'uid' so that i can check if user is login or not by setting this value to 0($user->uid==0), so that i can concentrate on anonymous user.. but this is not working..i do no how to start with this. quicksketch please help with this..
thanks in advance..
