Hi,
The simple answer to your query is yes. If you have qualified your JEE MAIN exam and have got a good score, then undoubtedly you will get an NIT or any other government college no matter if you give your JEE Advance or not. You don't need to give your JEE MAIN exam again if you have already qualified for it.
