Yes, your novel may mention all of the characters in 'The Wizard of Oz', and also in the other books of the royal histories series by author Lyman Frank Baum [May 15, 1856-May 6, 1919]. The lifetime of the author plus 50 years after the author's death is the legal copyright protection given to the work published during the author's life. A fifty year copyright protection from the date of publication is the legal arrangement for a work that's published after the author's death.
