The second game has a secret dungeon that is unlocked by collecting all Djinns in both games. No Djinn is missable within their own game, but this obviously doesn't apply across games. You can miss 1 Djinn of each element in the first game and the second one will give you an opportunity to encounter them there to help you out, but that's the end of the leeway.

Ouch...

I probably won't go for 100%. When specially trying / grinding for 100% on PS for trophies, it often burned me out of the games. So, now I only try that if I am REALLY enjoying the game, and even then if it start becoming frustrating I just leave it.

Luckily it isn't a collectathon with hours and hours of junk scattered everywhere. Look up how many djinn there are before deciding if you don't want to find them.

I'll take a look. Thanks for the info!

Yeah, these are still GBA games. Djinns aren't like Koroks in modern Zelda, more like Heart Pieces in classic Zelda. Limited to a reasonable number and each one meaningful.
