This could be an outline of a possible proof.



First,let's suppose that $f_1 dots f_m$ are algebraically indipendent. Let us consider a basis of trascendence $B=f_1 dots f_m, g_1 dots g_r$, so that we have the inclusions: $$ k subseteq k(f_1 dots f_m, g_1 dots g_r) subseteq K ,$$ with the last one being finite separable. Let's call the intermediate field $F$.



We have $$Omega_F /k= F df_1 bigoplus dots bigoplus F dg_r$$.Because of $K supseteq F$ finite and separable, we have $Omega_F/K=0$.



Using the standard exact sequences for Kahler differentials, one obtains $$Omega_K /k=K df_1 bigoplus dots bigoplus K dg_r .$$ One immediately obtain the linear indipendence of the differentials.



Let's do the other arrow. Let's call $L$ the field over $k$ generated by $f_1 dots f_m$ and let us suppose that $f_1 dots f_m$ are not algebraically indipendent.



Let's consider $B=f_i_1 dots f_i_s$ a maximal indipendent subset. Our hypothesis implies that $|B| <m$. One can see that $B$ is a trascendence basis for $L$. With exactly the same proof above, one has that $Omega_L/k$ is an $L$ vector spae of dimension less than $m$ so that $df_i$ are not linearly indipendent. Having $L subseteq K$ one obtains a contradiction.



Let me add just one more comment. It is pretty important that the characteristic is $0$. Let's take $k=mathbbF_p$ and $K=mathbbF_p(t)$ for some prime $p$. If we take $f_1=t^p$, one has that $f_1$ is not algebraic over $k$, while $df_1=0$.

    When $k$ is algebraically closed:



    If the polynomials are algebraic dependent, then there exists some polynomial $F$ such that $F(f_1,dots, f_m)=0$. Take the derivative with respect to each variable in the domain of $f_i$. It follows from the chain rule.



    If the polynomials are algebraically independent, then there exists no polynomial $F$ such that $F(f_1,dots, f_m)=0$. Then the image of the map defined by $f=(f_1,dots, f_m)$ is dense in $mathbbA^m(k)$, and by Bertini's theorem the differential is surjective on an open subset.
