In my project, I want to add harmony at certain places in the chorus. When playing back the song in Reaper, I hear the harmony blend over the entire song with no way of adding or removing harmony at the places I want. I need a way to control where the harmony will be added and was thinking, if I could output the harmony voice from Antares engine and record it as a separate Reaper track, then I could manipulate it as needed to add harmony in the places needed. Does anyone out there in Reaperland know of a way to do this? If I’m working strictly within the plugin, is there a way to automate shutting on/off the harmony voice at selected places? I’m new to working with plugins and really need some help on this one.

I'm sure there is a way to do what you want to and hopefully someone chimes in. I'm sure they will.
In any DAW, I typically copy the track that I want to use to make the harmony from then simply turn down the main vocal in that track coming from the effect. You simply delete any areas in the track you don't want harmonies then.
Another advantage to this approach is you could sing a new track only where you want harmonies and extend some longer or shorten the phrasing in other areas. That way not all of your harmonies are not always sounding like they exactly follow the lead all of the time. As an example, if you were going to sing the word "time" as part of the melody track and have additional lyrics after that word, you could sing the word as "tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime" held out for your backing vox.
Just some ideas. Best of luck. I'm excited to hear your results!

Source audio track set up with "send" to harmony track with harmony VST enable on the receiving track - set Harmony VST to 100% wet, set harmony/receive track to record and press play. This should record the incoming harmony which can then be spliced & diced as required though it's possible there'll be a tiny bit of latency. OR set up as above and instead of record select the harmony track, then select freeze render...it'll do it in machine time and should have less lag.
