Yes as long as the water stays chlorinated. If the water in the lines is not used for an extended period of time and the chlorine is diminished you can get what are called SRB or sulfur reducing bacteria which will produce HS hydogen sulfide gas. These can be eliminated by replacing the lines or superchlorination.

Why are all radiator hoses hot except the lower hose?

Lower radiator hoses in water cooled engines are return lines. The upper radiator hoses are feed lines of hot engine water to the radiator. The reason that lower hoses are cooler is that the radiator has allowed much of the water's heat to dissipate into the air. Thus, a lower radiator hose contains cooler water than other radiator and heater hose lines.
