I haven't beat it yet. If you can find a way to touch with the gamepad to stun them you can get by them without eating a fireball.

Or you time running past them, i.e. they can't shoot a fireball immediately after firing one and will sit in their spot without doing anything.
For the 5,000 coins achievement, you only need to collect the coins on your way to the exit, so you should focus on just that instead of going out of your way to collect everything on every floor. Playing that way will reduce the time of each attempted run drastically. Turning off the headlamp right at the beginning should be standard procedure, that way you don't alert the Shy Guys that you will come across eventually.

I've been touching the gamepad to stun enemies and it's worked pretty okay so far. It mostly works for the piranha plants, since they remain in one spot and can't follow me around.
The 5,000 coins achievement doesn't seem too hard. I've been doing the strategy you suggested and just going towards the exit because it does save a ton of time. I've also been turning off the headlamp and it's helped a lot too. The highest I've gotten is level 46 with about 4,000 coins. The whole thing isn't necessarily hard, it just seems to be whether or not I get lucky because I've noticed the placement of enemies and blocks alternates between attempts, and most of the time the thing that kills me is the camera angle. It's pretty hard to run, touch enemies and move the camera all at the same time. Regardless, I'm determined to complete this today!
