Is it okay to do so? Normally, I would keep it on charging for around 5 hours with battery less than 40%. Is this okay? Will it affect the battery life?

You can keep the phone below 40% for as long as you want, it will not affect battery longevity.
Actually I meant that I would start charging when the battery is below 40%
I'm always surprised when people don't charge their primary device every night. I always plug my phone in just before going to bed -- doing otherwise just doesn't make sense.
If your planning on keeping a phone for 3 + years and have say an iphone 5 or HTC M7 or M8 charging the phone overnight will kill the battery eventually and much faster then if you charged it and then took it off at 100%

These phones will regulate charging, you can't overcharge the battery. It's perfectly fine charging overnight, I've NEVER had a battery go bad on any phone in over 5 years.

Can't we get the battery replaced in case it loses its life?
It can be replaced by a service center right?
Had the phone charging overnight, and kept it on the charger as usual. Early this morning, the phone (at 100%) was very hot.
Checked the temperature thanks to GSam Battery Monitor, and it was 102 degrees!!
Took it off the charger and went back to sleep. It got down to 77 degrees and is cool to the touch again (and still at 99%).
Any modern battery regulates itself, meaning that once charged to 100% it will go down to about 95% then charge back up to 100% then rinse and repeat. It is literally impossible to overcharge your phone. Don't worry about it.

Moto G have A built in Non removable battery. So charging overnight won't make any issue for the battery life. It won't break down or pop up. Its also recommended in the Moto Care Tip to charge overnight so that you can used phone for a whole day next day.
That still isn't good for the battery ....
