Morphology
The meaning 'in the proper order / each after the other / as a result' is directly built from 'turn' (an occasion to act) combined with the locative/temporal sense of 'in', so a learner who knows both words can infer 'during one's turn' or 'one after another'. The phrase’s compositional logic is common across languages and in English usage, so an average B1 learner who knows the constituents will typically understand it.
Etymology
In turn comes from the simple idea of giving someone their own turn, as in a game or a line, so each person acts one after the other. If one thing happens and then another happens 'in turn', imagine each event taking its turn, which is why the phrase means 'one after another' or 'as a result'.
