Pagan,
You could make the dialog possible just by removing what restricts it from being there.

Remove the red, change the
9 to a 7.
This works, but it's just a hack - the dialog will say "Playername is the rightful ruler of No Faction. Join our cause against the usurper, Playername!" and you can convince them like normal, then they'll join you. But doing this you'll be able to ask any lord from any faction to join. You also wouldn't have any way of giving them fiefs, so they'd be permanently landless.
About this "hack" thing, it's actually working not too bad.
I came to the city of Curaw, requested a meeting with a local lord and persuaded him to join my "kingdom". As a result, I got a city with 387 defenders and a 152 lord's army for free without a fight.
But that's not the point, as 2 more things happened:
1) All captured lands were still owned by the lord.
2) I got a bunch messages, as a king, asking who should get villages, all that belonged to the captured city, 1 by 1: the lord I persuaded, me, as a lord or me, as a king.
So the texts needed for player to be the king are already there and a request to choose a ruler for a captured object is generated, probably when there is a non-zero amount of lords in the player's kingdom.
And also, there is yet no way of recruiting lords from your prison, auto-recruitment option for prisoners in town/cities every 48 hours(there is a version for normal units, but not the lords) and a recruitment option for AI - so that AI lords could "torture" their lord prisoners into joining their country, with some minor chance every 24/48 hours.
But one thing that converted AI lords cant do is
thinking. If you tell them to "do whatever they want" - they just stand in one place and do nothing(unless an enemy passes by and they chase him|run away).
So real kings probably generate tasks for lords and assign marshals to help them giving tasks to other lords.
