Yes, you'll get the token. Displacer's ability resolves before your removal, exiling and returning Kalitas. Then the removal resolves. Kalitas is on the battlefield, so the triggered ability replacement effect happens, giving you a token.
edit: re-read Kalitas, it's not a triggered ability.
The Displacer's ability exiles Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet, then immediately returns him to the battlefield tapped. Then, the removal spell resolves. Kalitas's ability applies normally here, causing the creature to be exiled and you to gain a zombie token.
Depends on the kind of removal that is being used. If it destroyes or otherwise makes the creature die (=go to the graveyard), then Kalitas's replacement effect will kick in and instead exile the creature and give you a token. A replacement effect has to be active when the event it's looking for would occur, has to exist right before the event occurs. Exiling and immediately returning Kalitas will only shut down the effect for the time Kalitas is not on the battlefield. Since the removal resolves after Kalitas has returned, the effect is active.
