This looks like a homework question about a particular story, in which case you should determine the answer by reading the story.
If you're just curious, and this isn't for a homework assignment, then in general no, Hercules did not ever become King of the gods. "Why not" is probably explained by the fact that the "King of the gods" usually got the title by patricide, either actual or symbolic (Zeus, for example, imprisoned his father Cronus), and Herakles (if we're talking about Zeus, this is the proper spelling; Hercules is paired with Jupiter) had a generally positive relationship with Zeus (as distinct from Zeus with Cronus: Cronus actually tried to eat Zeus when he was born, because Cronus became King of the Titans by castrating his own father Ouranos, and he didn't want history to repeat itself).
