It is likely already off. magic_quotes_runtime is a legacy feature nobody
uses anymore.

magic_quotes_gpc is likely what you are after. GPC means GET/POST/COOKIE
which is actually EGPCS these days (Environment, GET, POST, Cookie,
Server). This cannot be turned off in your script because it operates on
the data before your script is called. You can check if it is on using
that function and treat the data accordingly.
