There is one to one relationship between VM to NIC. There is no much benefit we will get for detach of NIC, So AzureRM provided the REST API to delete the NIC.

Below mentioned is the REST API Call for delete NIC :

If you use the Azure Resource Manager Templates from the azure-cli or PowerShell to deploy, then you can simply use the deployment in Incremental mode and remove the networkProfile of the virtual machine. It should update the virtual machine to be detached from the old NIC.

There no API to detach, only remove the nic https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/mt163562.aspx. a workaround would be to re-crate the VM (using the same disks as the original one) with the new vnet, nic,ips etc.
