No, not these trees. Elms should be grown outside for best health. You might be able to keep them alive indoors but they won't thrive and won't respond to bonsai training. If you wan't something to grow inside stick with tropicals. Ficus is a good one for inside.

Andy,
I've got to say I love your styling of the first tree. Everyone I know (including myself) would have probably made just a nice classic informal upright out of it, but you gave it such nice movement. I can just imagine the storm blowing through that shaped it! Have you considered making a nice tokonoma display using this tree with a "stormy winter" theme? Wow, that would make a great screensaver (ha ha!).
Keep amazin' us Andy,
All the best,
JDL
