Is it possible to run LHB Intercities with Non-AC Coaches safely at 200kmph (if we have upgraded tracks for 200kmph and a loco that hauls 24 coach train at 200kmph) without facing air drag and train being lifted?

The train won't be lifted. Technically, if you loco has the capability to haul that load at 200kmph and if the coaches are fit, then they can be run at 200kmph. But that's the the problem here. The problem is with the passengers.
At 200kmph, the effect of the wind is going to be very severe. A passenger sitting at the window with that wind constantly blowing on their face can sustain health issues. Having high speed wind slamming into your nostrils is not good.
