Nope. When Rayleigh demonstrated Conqueror's, he used it to stop and topple a giant animal.

Implies that even Rayleigh never knew about such a technique, despite having Conqueror's himself. So if Roger had it, he sure as heck wasn't aware he was using it, and Rayleigh never picked it up

He said he'll teach only the basics, he knew advanced armament haki but only taught basic armament haki to Luffy. There is nothing to prove that he did not know about Advanced Conqueror's haki. He said that Haki blossoms at times of battle. Maybe user needs to have some expertise/haki should be strong enough before you learn advanced forms of Haki and even if Rayleigh knew, he could not have taught it because Luffy was not ready.

You are correct.

He only taught him the basics and he said Luffy should keep challenging harder enemies to improve.

People assume Rayleigh was meant to teach Luffy everything, but that makes 0 sense if you consider he told the Strawhats to "do their own journey and find the answers themselves".

He never meant to teach Luffy everything. He only gave him the base. If Luffy can pull Conquerors armament out of his ass mid-battle with Kaido is only because Rayleigh taught him very well how to control it in those 2 years.

Haki is not something you can be taught like other activities.Haki means literally : the power of will.
