I need to export a schema and import in to another schema in the same database using original export/import method. The user has requested to precreate some of the tables before I do the import. He wants me to take the script of the tables from source schema and create newly the tables in the destination schema. Does it makes sense? Should I separately create those tables in the destination schema and then do the import or when I do export/import, automatically those tables will get transferred correctly? Basically he wants those tables to be pre-created in the destination schema because those tables contain LOB's so that the storage tablespace setting will be correct. Please advice.

If I take the create table script from source schema and change the name of the tablename alone and paste it in the destination schema, will it work?

some/many/most folks actually TEST DDL before applying to Production rather than depend upon unknown & unaccountable strangers.

I do have oracle installed in my personal machine. I do not want to test in office servers. If i mess up with something, I will be in to trouble. If someone could test this and let me know it would be helpful for me.

Install Oracle so you have a sandbox system to experiment with.
