Nothing prevents you from net sending. The issue is not whether you can net
send or not. The issue is whether the target is listening for it and whether
any router will block the udp packet.

You can't. If the messenger service isn't running on the destination
machine, no message will be displayed. That's why people disable it in
the first place.

on the target PC , the messenger service has been disabled
(which requires to be ON for it to recieve net send
messages)...under such circumstances is there any way to
make sure it recieves net send messages...

If the target is not running the messenger service the net send will fail.
You cannot get around this.

Can you receive a net send command when messenger is off?
no, definitely not
Can you remotely list running services?
it depends
Can you re-activate remotely any services that are disabled?
it depends
