I have a 13 Titan Nissan 5.6 L with a A/C prob.
The compressor started kicking on and off even when the power switch is off.. the air still blows cold , what do you think?

The compressor is likely wired to run most of the time to remove moisture from the air. If it is cycling very frequently it could be for a couple of reasons. It could be low on refrigerant or it could just be cooler temps outside causing it. The only way to find out if it is full is to have it completely evacuated and recharged with the exact weighed charge. DO NOT try to do this yourself.

Auto or manual ac? If the blower is turned off, the compressor shouldn't be engaged.

If the compressor is actually coming on without the fan, I would suspect a bad IPDM.
