Morphology
druggo + lifestyle
The compound is a straightforward noun+noun composition: 'druggo' (an informal term for a drug user) + 'lifestyle' (habits/way of living), so the meaning 'the way of living of drug users' is directly derivable from the parts. Although 'druggo' is slang and low-register, that affects frequency/register rather than compositionality, so a B1 learner who knows the constituent meanings would understand the MWE.
Etymology
Druggo lifestyle likely comes from the informal name druggo, made by adding an '-o' to drug to name someone who uses drugs. The image is of a life shaped by regular drug use, so the phrase means 'a way of living' marked by drug habits.
