Can you download something without setting up Apple I'd. It asks for owner pw.

Can you download to a new MacBook without setting up Apple ID. It asks for owner pw. OS Mavericks was preloaded when purchased.

You need an Apple ID to download items from the Mac App Store. Other than that the only Password that may be required is the Administrator password when installing it. 
If the computer was bought second hand, unless the computer was originally sold by Apple with OSx Mavericks pre-loaded, you have no license to use an OS associated with someone else's Apple ID, and you would have to format the computer, and install the original OS.
Any reason you don't want to create an Apple ID?
