How to Turn Off Real-Time Protection on Xbox App
You can't disable real-time protection through the Xbox app itself. Instead, head over to Windows Security settings on your PC, find 'Virus & Threat Protection,' and turn off 'Real-Time Protection' from there. Easy peasy!

Just a hot take, but maybe you shouldn't turn off real-time protection at all.
From my experience, you need to adjust your Windows Security settings. Go to 'Virus & Threat Protection' settings on your PC, and flip the switch for 'Real-Time Protection.'
To do this, navigate to your PC's Windows Security settings, then 'Virus & Threat Protection,' and turn off 'Real-Time Protection.' The Xbox app doesn't have this feature directly.
