Not only that. It isn't the land that makes people immortal and holy, it is the immortal people who make the land holy. It wouldn't have been Aman if the Elves and the Valar didn't live there. That was the misconception that the Numenoreans also had. They thought living in Aman would give them immortality, but in fact, it didn't confer immortality. The Elves and Valar were already immortal.
