Welcome Ranjan, that was quick. :)

Look into .config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml. If the file does not exist, you
need to copy over /usr/share/lxde/openbox/rc.xml to that location.

At the end of the file you will find the window matching rules. Add a
new one for xclock:

  <application name="xclock" class="XClock">
    <decor>no</decor>
    <shade>no</shade>
    <position>
      <x>0</x>
      <y>0</y>
      <monitor>1</monitor>
    </position>
    <focus>no</focus>
    <desktop>all</desktop>
    <layer>normal</layer>
    <iconic>no</iconic>
    <skip_pager>yes</skip_pager>
    <skip_taskbar>yes</skip_taskbar>
  </application>

<desktop>all</desktop> is the option you are looking for. You can also
leave out the options that you already pass to xclock at the command
line such as position.
