There is no policy built in to Office 365 that matches what you're describing (automatically block users from signing in after a specific period of inactivity). You could however create an Azure function or a scheduled task on a server to run a PowerShell script to find inactive users and block them on a regular basis. That would be my best approach to this.

Hello from 2024! Any chance this feature has been developed? I too am trying to check a compliance box. Thanks!
