Is the sentence “If he has not have it done, he will do it” conditional? If so, should it be rephrased as “If he does not have it done, he will do it” to fit the structure of the first type of conditional sentences?

Yes, your rewriting is correct; the original form is grammatically incorrect. In that first sentence the first use of the verb 'to have' [ 'he has not *had . .' ] is as an auxiliary to determine tense ie present perfect. * 'have' should be replaced by 'had', the past participle.
The second use - 'have' [which should be 'had'] indicates that the job will be done by someone else. To 'have something done' means to arrange for it to be done.
In the correctly rewritten version the tense [present / future] requires the auxiliary verb 'to do', and the subsequent use of the same verb ['have it done'] is coincidental. You would still use the first 'does' with any other verb in the second phrase eg “If he does not have it fixed, he will fix it”.
