In the world of The Lord of the Rings they are Elves, not Elves.

No, Sauron was never an Elb, he is and was a Maia from the beginning. The Maiar (which is the plural) are engels- or in his case rather demon-like, actually bodyless beings, which can create a body.

And in this way, Sauron disguised himself in the second age for a while as Elb called Annatar. Gandalf, Saruman and Radagast and the Balrog in Moria are also Maiar.

Sauron is a Maiar, like Gandalf, Saruman and the Balrog.
