The include/exclude match starts inside the mirror path specified and does not match the full path.
So just use "-x dir1/" or, if you want to make sure you won't exclude a folder named eg. nadir1, then "-x ^dir1/"

No matter what I try, I can't exclude "dir1" with an lftp script that contains this exclude – I always get the directory and all of the subdir content:
