You could add a couple of functions to alter the state of a bool call it something obvious like CanMouseJump.

 public void MouseJumpOn()
 {
     CanMouseJump = true;
 }
 
 public void MouseJumpOff()
 {
     CanMouseJump = false;
 }

Add An Event Trigger to the Pause button and add 2 events, one for On Pointer Enter and one for On Pointer Exit. Drag whatever has that script onto the slot and from the drop down select YourScriptName -> MouseJumpOff for On Pointer Enter and MouseJumpOn for On Pointer Exit.

Finally edit that jump check.

 if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown (0) && CanMouseJump) {

So if you're over the Pause button the mouse jump is off.

Generally it's not a good idea mixing Mouse Button Down and UI input but for 1 button it's not too much of an issue.

You can use if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown (0) && !EventSystem.current.IsPointerOverGameObject()) { //Code goes here }
