A fan that is connected to the engine will turn whenever the engine is running, an electric fan will only run when the engine is at the proper temperature, some also turn on whenever the AC is on.

Is the fan clutch on a 1992 Chevy 1500 supposed to turn off and on?

It is designed to free wheel until the engine reaches running tempture. The way you check the fan clutch is make sure the engine is hot, norther words go and drive it a few miles, then come back and leave the engine running, open the hood then stand somewhere where you can see the fan turning. Then turn the engine off and the fan blades should only turn about 1 time as soon as you turn engine off. If the fan spends several times then the fan clutch is bad. Replace fan clutch. Just be sure the engine is hot when you do this test.

On some makes of vehicle, the engine fan is supposed to keep running after the engine is shut off, if it was operating on a long trip on a hot day, for example. Come back to the car in 10-15 minutes. If the fan is still running, you have a problem. If it has shut off, all is well.
