Your system should come up OK with /tmp on the root filesystem (the /tmp directory already exists).

If I understand your advice correctly /tmp will be automatically
created on / (LogVol00) during reboot.

Not quite. When you had /tmp as a separate partition, it was mounted on top of an already-existing directory in the root filesystem. So you'll now be using that already-existing directory as your /tmp.

As Roberto pointed out, it's wise to ensure that the permissions are correct on this directory:

# chmod 1777 /tmp

Also make sure the SELinux context is correct:

# restorecon -v /tmp

Once you're happy that that's working, you can delete LogVol02 from
your volume group:

I'll not delete LogVol02 and will use it to install 2nd Linux OS.  Also
I'll create a 5G partition on raw partition as its /home

/boot will be shared by 2 OS.  This partition can be detected by grub
because not on VolGroup00

It's usually OK to share /boot between two different OS releases, but you may have problems if you share it between two instances of the same release, as there may be files of the same name from each installation. So if you upgrade your kernel in one instance, it may delete the kernel being used by the other instance.
