Is there a easy way to turn off/ Disable the DNS server to stop listening the requests over TCP and turn it ON whenever required?

no and it does not make sense at all

tcp is required for:

* zone transfers
* EDNS

if it ain't broken don't fix it

to make it clear - i was years ago taht stoopid too and opened TCP only for the machines doing zone transfers but we saw random resolution errors reported from users which ever appeared again after open port 53 for UDP and TCP and that was long before EDNS and DNSSEC where a topic like these days
