You could use Conditional Access to disable access to OneDrive for everyone who is not a member of a certain security group.



From an implementation standpoint I would not recommend this approach though as your users will still see OneDrive and SharePoint in all their apps and webportal, but get an error when they are trying to connect. Which will likely confuse them.



While you say you don't want to disable the licenses, you could use group based licensing in Azure AD. This not only allows you to assign licenses to users based on group memberships automatically, but also select which features of a given license should be enabled for members of this group.



When a user needs a license simply switch from one group with OneDrive Disabled to the other with OneDrive enabled. This will give your users a better experience until you actually enable OneDrive for them.
