Would Emacs module written in C be acceptable in ELPA if author likes
to provide it?
Is there way to make a package that is then using `make' and creating
module?

There are some packages in Melpa that do this. They will compile the binary
when the functionality is loaded in Emacs.
https://github.com/akermu/emacs-libvterm
https://github.com/politza/pdf-tools
I think the package repos just have support for byte compiling .el files.

Thank you.
By the way I do use emacs-libvterm as that is handling mutt mail
client in best manner. Emacs is missing maildir support, mutt is
handling maildir blazing fast, so I cannot without it. Since I started
using libvterm, term or ansi-term also improved, there were just few
bugs and it was improved, so I will switch back to ansi-term, I hope
it will work.
I did look into code of emacs-libvterm and I can see it tries to
compile the module, it does not succeed really, but it does say that
it was successful erroneously. Though concept inside seem to be good.
Would such module creation be accepted in GNU ELPA if authors agree?
They use cmake, and other build tools?

Yes. This was discussed here a few weeks/months ago.
