I use script to export image from illustrator to PNGs. Can illustrator export images attached GPS location with altitude/latitude inside PREXIF?

I doubt it. I exported a png file via a script and looked at the exif data (see screenshot below—this would be where longitude and latitude would appear). Also I haven't seen any meta-data related features in the exporting functions exposed to scripting. Your best bet might be to use an extra tool (eg. exiftool) to add the exif data after exporting.
