Hold in on the button when the door is open/light on and the light will go off and stay off with the door open. I don't think it stays that way though and next time it will come back on again when the door is opened.

Yes, press and hold for 5 seconds or more to turn them off until the next time the button is pressed (regardless of door open/close).
