Hi meenali

No, it is not possible. As example, I have a catalog "dspro20", where I am the owner:

In this catalog, I have a schema elt and a table "target_cities":

The owner is User dspro20@nona.company

When I try to delete the table, I got this error message: 

PERMISSION_DENIED: User is not an owner of Table 'dspro20.elt.target_cities'. SQLSTATE: 42501

You have to change ownership, to delete the table:

Now, I have to call the user dspro20 and explain, why I deleted his table ๐Ÿ˜‰
