The OP question was regarding a heading of 200 from departure to destination VOR and if you do so, you fly inbound on physical VOR radial 020, correct.
Correct. Tecman all VOR radials are magnetic. I think where people get confused is flying inbound to VOR's, outbound never seems to be a problem as you are flying the physical radial give or take a few degrees for tracking. In your example above CH putting it into real life I've heard people inbound on the 020 radial call that they are inbound on the 200 radial, as of course that would be their heading.
