Morphology
The meaning 'a way of life characterized by frequent travel' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'nomad' (a person who migrates) with 'lifestyle' (way of living). This noun + lifestyle composition is cross-linguistically common and follows straightforward semantic composition, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Nomad lifestyle comes from the old word nomad, for people who moved with their animals and lived in tents, going from place to place. So today it means a way of living that is about 'traveling' and not 'settling' in one home.
