I want to hang an LCD TV on the interior wall & want to know if i can run
the power cord through the wall to come out at the floor level to plug into
an outlet ?
If not is it possible to put a PLUG on a piece of romex & run that thru the
wall ?

NO and NO, Yes, of course it is possible to do those things. But is it safe
to do so.

In your asking that question, I'd suggest that you call an electrician and
have the work done properly.

What shopdog said. And even if it was safe, it would be a cob job. Really
lame & sloppy.

Suggestion install one of those recessed clock outlets (in a standard
with wall wired manner) in the wall behind where to hang the LCD
screen. IIRC most of them were only two pin simplex (single) outlet
not duplex. Used quite often before advent of battery clocks.

Three pronged recessed clock outlets are certainly available:
