Can the RTS and CTS Channels be used as TX and RX for Serial Data?

The opto-coupler used in the TX and RX lines are high speed and the opto-couplers used in the CTS and RTS lines are not. This makes them unsuitable for data transfer. The data on the hand shake lines may work some of the times but is very unreliable.
