This question is probably impossible to answer, because nothing is recorded that answers it. We have been told that Charlemagne's coronation as emperor was a surprise to him, but we do not know he opposed it.
Charlemagne was crowned three times. He did not oppose the first two, when he was crowned King of the Franks and King of the Lombards.
We do not have a date for the birth of Charlemagne, but he is thought to have been 25 or 26 when he was crowned king. The date given for the coronation is October 9, 768.
Charlemagne was crowned king of the West Franks in Noyon France on October 9, 768. He was crowned emperor on December 25, 800 AD in St. Peter's Basilica, in Rome, by Pope Leo III. Charlemagne was crowned at least one other time, when he became King of the Lombards, probably in Pavia, in 774, though I do not see precise information on this. The information may well exist in sources I have not seen.

Yes. Charlemagne was born in the Frankish kingdom circa 742 AD and died in 814 AD.

Charlemagne initially opposed his coronation as Emperor by Pope Leo III in 800 because it was seen as an unexpected and controversial move that challenged the authority of the Byzantine Emperor in Constantinople. Charlemagne may have also been concerned about his relationship with the Byzantine Empire and the implications of assuming a title that claimed authority over all of Christendom.
The Coronation of Charlemagne was created in 1517.
Charlemagne's coronation took place at St. Peter's.

Charlemagne was crowned twice, once as King of the Franks, and once as Emperor of the Romans. The first of these coronations took place in Noyon, which is north of Paris. The second coronation was in Rome, in Saint Peter's Basilica.
Charlemagne was not prepared for his coronation and may not have wanted to be crowned by the Pope. If the Pope had the power to crown Charlemagne king, the Pope might also have the right to remove the crown.
