What I am wondering is, can a woman who wants an elective CS get the same hormonal kick if she allows her body to go into labour first? Would this be a viable option for someone who had decided to go this way?

Jasp ideally that would be good. However, it would depend on why the c/section was scheduled. For example if a placenta was covering the os this would put the mother & infant in danger. etc etc.
So the short answer is not usually. (thankyou for your kind words.)
