If someone wins big on lottery, million dollars and above, does the winner have a right to say and request that s/he doesn't want to be on television? Can't the lottery give out the prize secretly?

Each state has their own rules. Go to the web site of your State's Lottery Commission or call them to find out what their rules are regarding this issue.

In the days of the football pools big winners were offfered a cash incentive to go public.
I see no reason why it would not be the same with the Lottery.

In England you can have a no publicity clause before you collect your check. But they will try to persuade you otherwise

In America it is printed on the back of the ticket that by purchasing the ticket you agree to have your likeness publicized. If you do not want to, you can choose not to buy the ticket. Otherwise your name and likeness will be displayed.
