Two-factor authentication for Apple ID - Apple Support

see the frequently asked questions at the bottom.. the only shot you have is if you are within the 2 week window of enrolling in 2FA. After that you cannot turn it off

You should know that you cannot do that.

Can I turn off two-factor authentication after I’ve turned it on?

If you already use two-factor authentication, you can no longer turn it off. Certain features in the latest versions of iOS and macOS require this extra level of security, which is designed to protect your information. If you recently updated your account, you can unenroll within two weeks of enrollment. Just open your enrollment confirmation email and click the link to return to your previous security settings. Keep in mind, this makes your account less secure and means that you can't use features that require higher security.
