Can a king become a priest during middle ages?

Technically, a king could have become a priest, but it probably never happened. A priest is supposed to have a vocation, and a priest's vocation would probably have been viewed as being in conflict with the demands of monarchy. We have records of monarchs who abdicated and retired to monasteries or convents, but this did not happen commonly and even when it did they did not always become monks or nuns. To have become a priest, a king would have had to go further with education and have a different, specific vocation.

How did you become a priest in ancient rome?

You merely had to be appointed a priest to be a priest. The priesthood in ancient Rome was not the same as our present day priesthood. All it generally entailed was offering a sacrifice and any male Roman could do this. Being a pried was usually an honorific position with minimal duties. Originally it was only the patricians who could be priests. Later, plebeians were given access to the priesthoods. Originally the priesthoods were extremely important as the very early Roman state was based on religion. The priesthoods were key to the patricians having superior status. As the state became more and more secular, this importance faded.
