As this was fake, the answer seems to remain no, sadly (lemmy.world)

Since he owned Twitter and is responsible for the founding of X, the claim that he founded X is technically accurate. I don't wonder if that's the main reason he did the rename; so he could make this claim.

The definition of "found" is not extremely precise, so it's still a debatable point. Did rebranding the company count as "starting or establishing a new organization or institution"? The fake obit doesn't mention Twitter, and he was responsible for the rebrand and inarguably drastically changed the employee base and entire leadership structure. Did he not found it because it's the X of Theseus? Now I'm arguing against my own point, but I only made it for giggles.
