How to register a player faction

Can player factions still be created now? If not possible, will all player factions be deleted in PP2.0? Or will the player faction system be reopened in future colonial version?
 
They can't be created - you'll have to pick an existing faction to support.
Existing ones stay around.
Frontier haven't said definitely that they aren't, but it seems unlikely. The announcement they made when closing creation of new ones implied that they saw things like Powerplay and Colonisation as replacements for that.

It's worth noting that FD have all but outright stated that factions can't be deleted.

Factions have been "disappeared " for sure, but they still exist... they get (presumably, manually) rehomed to invisible "test " systems, proven by people who had allied status before the faction disappeared; they could pledge their squadron allegience to these "disappeared" factions.

I can imagine it would cause no end of problems to do this for literal thousands of factions and decouple whatever assets they control.

Also it'd purely be an exercise in moving sand from one pocket to another... PMFs offer nothing that a standard faction couldn't replace, so removing them wouldn't achieve anything of note.
