No,sorry Noah, Abraham, David, Solomon and most of the rest lived way before Jesus' time, so they were unable to worship or even know of Jesus. And, there is no amount of fancy nonsensical extravagant extrapolations that can change that.
Galatians 3:12-13
And the law is not of faith: but, The man that does them shall live in them.Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
Acts 5:29-30
Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men. The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you slew and hanged on a tree.
Acts 10:38-39
How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power:
who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him. And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:
Paul, Peter and the other Apostles apparently did not know Jesus either. They say Jesus was hung on a tree. They say they were witnesses.
May The Good Lord have mercy on us all.

Biomimetik,
Which is a great reason why to believe that Jesus became Jesus who was before; the Word of God. He always was as it says in John 1. Therefore in John 10 He refers to Himself as the I AM. He's the same guy who, before He became Jesus emptied Himself, to become Jesus without the knowledge of the Son of God, which is shy He sweated so much in the Garden at Gethsemne, and that Gnosis, or knowledge was returned to Him after the Resurrection. It's so simple actually.

am i mistaken in thinking that Moses also transcended into heaven without being dead therefore he was the first model for the christ figure but for the old testament, except he led the jews physically to a land of freedom whereas Jesus led people spiritually to a better life??? not that I buy the mystic bits of these stories so lets say allegedly lol

They did not know him as a man on earth since he was not born physically however the God of the Old Testament was in fact Jesus Christ. Some will argue that it was God the Father and He certainly does appear in the OT but mostly it was Christ doing the interaction with humans.

They did not worship Jesus but did worship God and held onto the promise of a Messiah to reconcile them to relationship with God.

They all did. You will find many times in the Bible referring to the God of Abraham or the God of Moses, and so on.

Yes., they worshiped Jesus.
Jesus was created in the beginning (John 1), but came to Earth (as we know him later, when he was born of Mary).
Prior to being born of Mary, he was called, Jehovah, Lord, and a few other things.
Recall one of several words God, is the Hebrew term Elohiym, which Elohiym is plural.

No because they didn't know about him and he hadn't come to Earth. But technically Yes because Jesus is God when they worship Jehovah since Jesus is Jehovah and vise-versa they were worshiping Jesus but they actually said Jehovah not Jesus

They worshiped God, Jesus is God. They worshiped Jesus.
He didn't reveal His Name to them, He did to us.
God is the same yesterday today and tomorrow.
The closest He came to revealing Hid name in the old testament was the word Jesurun.
The letters JESU--then run.
The letter missing is S.

No; Jesus had not been born yet. Also, these guys were Jewish-- Jews in general believe that Jesus was a great teacher, but not the messiah.
