I have 1 Xstick USB dongle and 2 Xbee2 LTH Sensor. XStick will act as a coordinator but can I configure one of the LTH sensor as router and other as end-device so that I can sense distant reading from my PC? Please help.

Its technically possible but something not recommended.

You can update firmware on LTH sensor OTA using USB dongle. However, Router will consume power all the time and your batteries will drain out completely in less than a week.
