Opponent is recreational player. Should call this 3bet here without position? Postflop is standard I think.

I'm calling preflop and then play for stacks on flop with overpair given his stack size. I dont want to see overcard on turn and have headache. Denying him equity from all his AK/AQ/KQ/KJ etc. is very important.

Pre-flop is tricky against a short stack without any info how aggressive villain is with 3betting.
Against a tight recreational I would fold for sure. If villain is a aggessive recreational shoving seems reasonable as well with in mind playing out of position without initiative is really hard with 99.
If you call like now not to many flops are good. This 1 of the best flops you can hope for against villains AX hands, but against a over pair you are crushed except 88. If you shove the flop you get only action of better, the nut flush draw or K♠:Q♠:
I would most likely still shove, but it's close I think.

Turn play seems pretty standard. Off course you are hoping villain has a draw or over played ace high.
