I am able to upload, download, list projects and repositories using a private token.
Is it possible to do the same without a private token? Means user will provide username or email address alone...

It is not possible to push to a repository without authentication first.
And it is not possible to pull from a private repository, again without authentication.
If you are not using a token or password, the only other alternative (for authentication) would be using a private/public pair of SSH keys, with the public one registered to your GitLab account.
The OP adds:
Means when user x upload file using common login, want to display user x has committed the file and so on...is that possible
Commit authorship has nothing to do with push/pull remote access authentication.
For a user to be visible on a commit, all they need to do is set their git config user.name and git config user.email, and then do some commits.
