Two-factor authentication is a property of your Apple ID, it cannot be turned off once enabled.
From Two-factor authentication for Apple ID - Apple Support:
Can I turn off two-factor authentication after I’ve turned it on?
If you are already using 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 have recently updated your account, you can unenrol within two weeks of enrolment. Just open your enrolment confirmation email and click the link to return to your previous security settings. Bear in mind that this makes your account less secure and means you can't use features that require higher security.
