            helper:'clone',
            revert: 'invalid'
            });

Answer 1

$("#Normal_Tag1_div").clone().attr("id", "newId")
  .draggable({ helper:'clone', revert: 'invalid' });

Answer 2

Your question and comment do not make things very clear however I have revised my answer.

A working demo of cloning an element, renaming the id and initializing the draggable is show here.

You cant clone the element if you have already initialized the draggable as the new element when dragged will drag the old element as show here

    $("#draggable").clone()
                   .attr('id', 'newDrag')

   $('#draggable, #newDrag').draggable();
