To answer the original question, no he would not have been eligible. Finarfin was Elrond's superior in seniority, status, lineage, and claim. There would be no question of Elrond becoming king of anything. The only claim to being king that he had was king of the Noldor in Middle-earth. The title would not transfer from Middle-earth to Valinor.
