Are there any piranhas or piranha-like fish that I can keep in a 20h?

Not Piranha's for life in a 20. You could keep some of the smaller serra species like a sanchezi, eigenmanni, or medinai in there if you get it young. You could do a little collection of exodons in there. They are scale eating tetras. I've never kept any but I hear they can be rather entertaining.
would you have something to put it i after it gets too big, or do you want something that can stay in a 20 for life?
for life
I was also thinking of exodons but am also thinking of alternatives if I won't be able to get the exodons. If I did get exodons, how many could I keep there?
Its just that I have this empty tank sitting there and I want to use it.
And can you keep a fish that will grow to 6 in max in a 20?

exodons do best in larger groups, most people say at least 8
i personally wouldn't keep a 6 inch fish in a 20 gallon, that is just not enough room

ok so no piranhas.
about the exodons, can I keep 10 of them without it being overcrowded?
I will be using a penguin 150 power filter with bio-wheel
it'd be a bit overcrowded, but you could try it... you would definitely need to up your filtration tho
I think 8 would be great , Maybe 10 .
I NEVER SEEN A 6 INCH EXO "3"-4 INCH TOPS .
There is NO PICTURE OUT THERE OF A 6 Inch exo .
Proof me wrong
exo can put on a great show
Thats what I would do If I wanted a fish ...That shoals .
That will rip a gold fish up .
Is that what you want ?

By a six inch fish, I meant a piranha like a holland's piranha
