I have a condition where I don't need to insert certain normalized documents to Elasticsearch that matches the predefined sets of queries.  
Is there any way I can run the predefined Elasticsearch query against the document(JSON object)?

Welcome! I'd look at the percolator feature. See [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-percolate-query.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-percolate-query.html)
