The only known way to turn oneself from a human to a Skeleton Mage/Elder Lich to our knowledge is to use the Death Spiral spell that Khajiit and Zurrernorn were attempting to do.

However, the Book is implied to be able to turn undead into souls. So one has to suspect, it can do the opposite as well. In short, Fluder might be able to use the book to create a reverse spell to turn his own soul into an undead, which for him would be a Skeleton Mage, and then maybe use the book to then advance to Elder Linch afterwards.
