You can store each timeout function in an object so that you can retrieve it later.

var timeout_funcs = {};

function addTimeout(func,time) {
    var id = window.setTimeout(func,time);
    timeout_funcs[id] = func;
    return id;
}

function getTimeout(id) {
    if(timeout_funcs[id])
        return timeout_funcs[id];
    else
        return null;
}

function delTimeout(id) {
    if(timeout_funcs[id]) {
        window.clearTimeout(timeout_funcs[id]);
        delete timeout_funcs[id];
    }
}
