I confused her with Anlinde. But I guess since she's not only an average Elven Sorceress but the incarnation of the powers of light themselves that's an exception.

As I said, it's only my guess. I would like to know, how long the average elven livespan is, though

The very same article says that she was cursed to live eternally- But now we're getting really off-topic. Just wanted to point this out.

According to the excerpt given by AI, elves live an average 250 years. Now this question concerns the topic, because in my planned campaign, which happens around 700 YW, there is an elf warrior who has fought alongside Konrad in the quest to reclaim Wesnoth's throne. If the elves average life expectancy is 250 years, then I suppose this elf could be alive and still fighting in 700 YW?

IIRC it's said, that Elves grow up quickly and age quickly. Between this processes there's a huge time of not-changing. I imagine an Elf growing up in 18-20 years as humans do, than stay "young" (physically) for about 220 years and experience a few years of decay followed by death. Provided that this is correct and provided your hero was about 20 during Konrad's fight for the Throne, this would certainly be possible.
Note: Unfortunately I don't remember whre the information on the elven process of aging was told.

Elfarion: You've completely mixed up Andlinde and Elynia.
