Is it possible to enable AOD without sizuku permission?

If permission granted my banking apps won't work.

Yes. The Always On Display tile doesn't need Shizuku specifically. In AlwaysOnDisplayTileService.kt it accepts either the WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permission or Shizuku/root, and WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS can be granted once over ADB from a computer:

adb shell pm grant com.sameerasw.essentials android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

This is also listed in docs/SERVICES_AND_PERMISSIONS.md. The grant stays in place until you uninstall the app, so after running it you can turn off USB debugging, and Developer options too if your banking apps complain about those, and the AOD toggle keeps working without Shizuku running.

Only the features that really need privileged shell access, like some of the root and Shizuku-only tiles, still require Shizuku or root.

You can do it from the phone itself on Android 11+. Turn on Wireless debugging in Developer options, then use an on-device ADB app like LADB or aShell (they pair with wireless debugging) and run the same pm grant command there, without the adb shell part. Once it's granted, turn wireless debugging and developer options back off and the permission stays.

if one does not have a computer for the time being then?

Setup shizuku. This is a built in button inside Essentials. In essentials settings, check the permissions section

One more question, if I enable shizuku, is there any issue with banking apps and does it work with devices other than google phones like realme p1 or moto g7?
