As the documentation it should be like that : http://sachinchoolur.github.io/lightGallery/docs/api.html#methods

var cI = $('#categoryImages');
cI.lightGallery();
$('body').on('click', '.category', function() {        
    cI.data('lightGallery').destroy(true);
});

Update fiddle : http://jsfiddle.net/n5w7eoxh/11/

You need to save a reference to your initialized plugin and then call destroy on that after the ajax is complete, after you call destroy you reinitialize the plugin

var gal = $('#categoryImages');
gal.lightGallery();
/...
request.done(function(data) {
//...
$('.ajxcategoryImages').html(subcategoryImages1); //append the results 
  gal.data('lightGallery').destroy(true);//destroy the current gallery
  gal.lightGallery();//create a new one
/..
