Electronegativity of a nonmetal?

Is a non metal with more electronegativity more reactive than a non metal with less electronegativity? I mean can the former displace the latter in a displacement reaction? And is there any exception to this rule?

There is no such rule.
To some extent that's how it will work for at least some of the binary compounds (metal/nonmetal), but in general chemistry of nonmetals is way too diverse for such a simple rule.
