Can the ac compressor clutch cause low engine idol if turning when ac is turned off?

Yes, if the compressor's bearings are bad, usually accompanied by a roaring or squealing noise coming from the compressor's pulley.

quite possibly the A/C compressor clutch. The whining should decrease when the A/C is turned off. You will still hear some of the noise due to the clutch turning while the engine is on.

How do you test a fan clutch on a 99 Chevy blazer?
Start the engine and drive it if possible and get it hot. Then open the hood and watch the fan turning, then turn the engine off and the fan should only turn about 2 times at the most after engine is HOT and then turned off. If it free spins several times then the fan clutch is bad. Replace clutch.

What causes a 1999 Jeep Cherokee to start vibrating only when the AC is on after the AC blew cold air then warm air before a pop was heard?
Check the belt and pulleys. Make sure the AC pulley turns. When the AC is turned on, the clutch should engage to the pulley and the AC compressor should turn, and yes, it can cause the engine to vibrate a little. If the clutch doesn't try to engage, there could be some problems with the AC, but first try to find out what caused the noise, and determine if the AC compressor is turning.
Why wouldn't the AC compressor turn?
The most likely reason the compressor is not coming on is because you are low on freon. The low pressure switch will keep the compressor from cycling on because damage to your compressor would result. You can jumper across the low presure switch with the engine running and A/C turned on, ( for short time only) this will provide you with question is my compressor clutch good, or am I just low on freon. The AC compressor relay switch may need to be replaced
