Is a 2014 MacBook Air still good in 2020?

2014 is getting a bit long in the tooth. But it is capable of running the latest OS and should be supported with OS upgrades for many years to come. With only 4GB RAM it's not going to be a good experience with any OS. I really urge you to go for at least 8GB.
