Conceptual question (Can a point of order be a main motion?)

If bylaws of a society requires electing office by ballot, and the society did it by voice, the action should be what RONR 12ed. 23:6(e) says. If a member is allowed to call for a point of order when there is no business pending, the point of order is a main motion. Is it correct?

No, a Point of Order is an Incidental motion   See RONR (12th ed.) 6:15
