If I use lifetap charges on a monster via a wand, can my merc get the 50% leach?

Further questions.

1) Can lifetap be cast (via Dracul's Grasp) on strike by a ranged weapon? (throwing knifes, axes, javs, bows etc?).

2) Can the spell (on the gloves) be triggered by an elemental damage strike?

3) Once cast (via charges or a necromancer or Dracul's gloves), does it return life for elemental damage?

Yes.

It's not clear exactly what you mean by an "elemental damage strike." As a rule of thumb, "attacks" trigger it while "spells" don't.

No.
