Just wondering what your thoughts were on whether you see Kick as a primary option for snare creation as well.

Technically, you could get creative and use anything for a snare. You could definitely use it as the bottom layer of snare, yes. I'd pitch it up an octave and place a high cut on it, though. Just my recommendation. I've done it a couple of times, and it sounds aight. I know Skrillex does it from time to time. There are better ways to add more bottom end to your snares though. Which DAW you working out of?

Yep, a kick pitched up to ~200 hz area is a good base for a snare.
