Ainaserkewen, I'm not sure. I've not checked up on passages referring to Lucifer for a while. But I do not think so. Lucifer means "Son of the Morning", he was given power over the earth and its creatures. I do not think he was a quire angel (But please do correct me if I am wrong). I'm almost certain he was an Arch Angel, if not higher. I know he was once The TOP angel.

Like anything in the Bible, it is certainly up for deliberation. I don't, however, have exact references, though I'm sure if I ask I can get them.
It was a seminar I attended that preached the dangers of some music. Don't ask me what I thought of it, but one of the points was the Lucifer was "lead singer" of the angels. At its lowest levels, that means he was "Top angel". My point is that all this trouble in middle-earth and Melkor's upity-ness was started by singing. I'll try to find some referrences to back this up, but I do trust my original source.
