I want to know whether Nikon SnapBridge can display a live preview of what the Nikon D3500 lens sees before I take the picture, similar to remote live view/tethered shooting. If it can, how do I enable it?

Probably not, unless Nikon has changed the way they do the D3x00 series. We've got a number of related questions that all deal with the D3x00 series of cameras not having the ability to do tethered shooting. Even Nikon cameras that are capable of tethered shooting don't give real time Live Views off camera with the major tethering software applications. There are some other apps that claim they can do it with upper tier Nikon cameras, such as the D7x00 series or the three digit (D850, D300, etc.) and single digit (D5, D4,etc.) models.

No—on the Nikon D3500, SnapBridge does not provide a real-time live view of what the lens sees before you take the shot. The D3x00 series generally does not support tethered shooting or remote live-view functions in the way higher-end Nikon bodies may.
So there isn’t a setting in SnapBridge on the D3500 to turn this on. If you need off-camera live view/remote preview, that’s typically a feature found on higher-tier Nikon models rather than the D3500.
