Lutien was half elven, but since both parents were immortal, it had no consequence of her fate.
It was decreed that all those with mortal blood would be mortal, because mortality was a gift to men by Illuvatar, and that after death they would leave the world. All of those with mortal blood were given the gift and so were mortal.
Back to the original question, when Dior was slain, his spirit would have gone to the place all spirits of men go to. Same for his sons, they would not have gotten a choice to belong to what kindred to belong to as that choice was only given to Earendil, Elwing, Elros, Elrond and his children.
Nightknight: If Dior wasn't slain he would have died eventually like all men.
