Is 3600mhz ram good for ryzen 9 5900x?
It should work fine but some kits especially 32gb kits may cause issues (I run mine at 2666 MHz and don't even get me started on those Kingstons that I removed from my PC)...

Is 64gb ram excessive?
For gaming, 64GB of RAM is definitely overkill. For editing/streaming/recording, unless you're doing extremely demanding resolutions, 64GB is probably overkill there as well.

Can minecraft run smoothly on 4gb ram?
Yes, this is by far enough ram to run Minecraft. I spent about 4 years on a machine with 4gb RAM, and I can assure you that the only issue with that amount of RAM is trying to do more things at the same time (chrome + game for example), but even then the main issue with Minecraft is the graphics.
