Can a Lumia 920 use an NFC tag to change a phone's settings such as turn off the ringer and Wifi when I leave the house and turn Bluetooth on?
 
You need to download a NFC app to set up the NFC tag in order to make it functional. Just search NFC in the AppStore.
 
As Alice said, sadly no. Being as that is the only really useful use for NFC I'm not quite sure what the big push for NFC was...

13 years ago people were saying the same about the network adapter that was built into the original Xbox. "No need for it, since online gaming was for PCs only". NFC is there for the capability. Right now tap and share is about it, but app control will happen soon. NFC payment will also happen, just not as soon.
