I have hourly temperature data (without date and time) about 5200. I want to extract daily mean and store the output as a vector using a for loop. Can anyone give me useful suggestion?

One approach:
T = 1:5200; % Temperature Vector
for k = 1:24:numel(T)
k2 = ceil(k/24);
idx = k:(min(k+23,numel(T)));
DailyMean(k2) = mean(T(idx));
end
There may be more efficient ways to do this, depending on what your temperature data actuallly are.

If you have your data stored in a timetable array I recommend using the retime function to change the time basis of your data from hourly to daily.
