Yes many elites find it sacraligious to use human technology, many would rather die fighting hand to hand than use them, its says in the books several times.
but the covenants tactics do change over time as they get to know human waffare better.
twice in the flood elites use human tech. Zuka Zamamee actually learns to fly a Pelican dropship so his commando elite squad can infiltrate the human Alpha Base.
Also another elite actually uses a M6D pistol to execute a human then commenting on its primativeness. they obviously know how to use our weaponry and vehicles (elites at anyrate) so in times of need for the covenant in the heat of battle i think it is very likely. like most speculation i could be wrong but at least i have facts to support my idea.
