I have been using a Mac since OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion), and in my experience, 
auto-QuickNav on/off has only existed in iOS.
On the Mac, if you want to type with QuickNav on, you need to make sure that 
Quick Key Navigation is turned off using VO + Q.

QuickNav will auto toggle off (just like in IOS) when you have the VO Cursor 
inside a text input field on the web. My memory is that five years ago, when 
composing e-mails (probably High Sierra ) the auto-toggling of QuickNav 
happened in TextEdit and Mail also. So, perhaps it is a bug, but it has been so 
long since this behaved the way I like, that I doubt it will ever change back. 
This is one reason, I prefer using a full keyboard with a numeric keypad for 
Navigating. I can have single key storkes that do most of my navigation without 
remembering if QuickNav mode is on or off.

                Best wishes,
