Hard to say, we do not know that much of how Númenorean armour looked like. It wasn't described that much in the books, what you know from the films (LotR 1) is the Arnorian (and early Gondorian) armour, which are kingdoms created years after the destruction of Númenor. It is true that the Númenorean armour could have looked like this at the end of Númenor's existence, but we cannot be sure about that (do note that armours change throughout time, just look how Gondorian armour went from looking like the Arnorian mailed armour to the Gondorian plated armour (in the films at least)). There are various other reasons as well, but all in all - we won't be using the Arnorian armour for Númenor. We've already made new armours to replace the Gondorian ones for Númenor, so we intend to use those instead :-)
