I have a coral beauty in my 55g and want to know chances of being able to put a lemonpeel or flame in there without them fighting any chance?

Yes, they will battle for awhile, in most cases it is highly recommended that you do not put two dwarfs in the same set up. But if your like me, I did have two dwarfs, a lemonpeel and a pygmy angel. I bought the lemonpeel and the wife got a flame We QT'd them together for 6 weeks and then separated them. I rearranged my rock work in my tank that way there was no established territories and acclimated the lemonpeel and set her free. They but chased each other for a little bit but then found there homes. the next day I awoke to them standing in line together waiting for the cleaner shrimp to clean them. They did bicker every now and then but nothing major.
right now I have a multi-colored angel and I really miss the bright color of the lemonpeel, considering getting another.
But to answer the original question..... not recommended but doable. I'm gonna get some frowns for this one. Lol)

frowning at you Keith. Lol
It's like he said, some will work and some won't you just have to try it but high percentage will disagree and won't work.

One MAJOR thing to consider......IF (or when) they fight.....are you willing to tear that whole tank apart to catch one?????
or will you just let them fight to the death
that IMO is what you should be thinking about

okay, thats cool, however, just because there good doesn't mean theres not ging to be an issue. QT the new tank mate and when the time comes re-arrange the rock work and add the new angel. The reason for the rock moving is so the current fish can establish new territories. Imagine some stranger moving into your house?
I would also consider adding the new critter with the lights off.
