if you were to live forever, and ensure that everyone else would live forever - if you were to put an end to manufacturing of weapons - if you were to put an end to war - you might be the messiah - jesus failed to do this on all counts - that is why jews rejected him as messiah

You'd have to discuss that with a rabbi, but I believe that you can convert if you are sincere and convicted. There is only one messiah, and that's Jesus. If you look at Hebrews 11, you will see a long list of those that were considered righteous by God even before Jesus agreed to be born in the flesh. Scripture says that "these died, not yet having received the promise". The promise of an eternity with God.

answer: Yes, anyone can convert after a long period of study, incorporating more and more Judaism into your life and upon recommendation by your rabbi to a rabbinical court and their approval.

No one is allowed to ask if someone was born a Jew or if they are a convert.

There is nothing to be saved from. There is no hell.

Could they become The Messiah? Highly unlikely

Of course you can, but converting would mean denying Jesus Christ as the savior. If you honestly don't believe in Jesus and recognize him as the Son of God then go ahead and convert! Judaism is a great religion with good values and a lot of tradition and culture. If you do however still believe in Jesus then converting would be a lie and you would still be denying Him.
