The only mortals to ever reach Valinor in Tolkien's legendarium were Tuor, Turambar (through Mandos), the fleet of Al-Pharazon, and the ship of Earendil. (Although Tol-Eressea wasn't as exclusive as it later became.) Considering that by the time that the history of Numenor came to be complete all but the latter two were dropped I think it is highly unlikely that Amandil could have made it.
