I got my hands on a pair of 4ohm 200Watt speakers
I was wondering if this product can use them?

I dont really know too much about speakers other than 4ohm speakers can make an amp get hot....
Can I connect a 200W 4ohm speaker to Adafruit Amp?

Yes, that amplifier is rated to drive a 4-ohm load. So it is safe to connect it to any speakers with a 4-ohm (or higher) impedance.
Keep in mind that with 20W per channel, you won't be able to drive a speaker rated for 200W to anywhere near its max SPL. But you can probably get them playing at a decent listening level.
