No, they cannot. The card is only Elbrus, the Binding Blade  Flip while it's in the Library.

711.2a In every zone other than the battlefield, and also on the battlefield with its front face up, a double-faced card has only the characteristics of the front face.

When Elbrus, the Binding Blade  Flip is in your library, it is a Legendary Artifact Equipment. While the double faced card is not on the battlefield, you only take the characteristics of the front face, i.e. the equipment.

To add to the above statements, you can only search for a 'Demon Creature Card". So even if by chance some artifact, land, or enchantment had a "Demon" subtype you couldn't tutor for it.

The tutor target MUST BE a Creature with a subtype of "Demon". As previously stated double sided cards are considered their front face when in any zone other than the battlefield or when on the battlefield and not "transformed"
