Even if he just robbed him of his physical form, it would be a feat. I believe he could have done it, for I don't think Fëanor was as bound by the Oath as were his sons, though perhaps it is because he never had a chance to really be caught up in it.
Comparing Fingolfin to Fëanor in terms of power is ridiculous. Honestly, Fëanor was the most powerful non-Vala to exist within the sphere of Arda. He was the strongest, and most skilled, and let's not forget that he was fey, and that his bodied fell to ash when his spirit left it. Even his will was a match for that of Morgoth's. In Valmar he looked in the eyes of Morgoth, and his spirit did not waver. The only other being in all Arda who can claim that was Luthien Tinuviel, and she was also a being of great power, with a high Doom before her.
I definitely think Fëanor would have had a chance, had he been able to fight his way through the Balrogs. Or had Morgoth not been afraid to face him, for we all know that he feared Fëanor, and hated him. Anyways, Fëanor would have had a better chance than Fingolfin, and Fingolfin aquitted himself well indeed. It's up in the air... what do other people think?
