I have an old Stumpjumper HT with Custom DT Swiss X420SL, 24mm rims.

What is the smallest size tyre I can fit safely on the rims?

I want to use it on road only.

You probably won't get 23mm wide tyres for 26" wheels?

You can get 25mm and they'd be fine.

Is your 24mm external? Internal width of the rim is important.
