If by victor you mean God triumphing over Lucifer then yes, I suppose they are victors. It's all about perspective, I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to Satanic or occult doctrine but I'm sure whatever manifestos are central to that sort of faith has a completely different spin on the Christian tradition in terms of the struggle between God and Lucifer.

i meant during the old Testament days, there were these few tribes who worshipped a particularly deity
the one which worshipped Yahweh triumphed over the other tribes
Lucifer was actually one of the kings of these others tribes
of coz, the tribe that triumped would call these others deities and kings "demons" or "Satan"
if it had been otherwise, "Yahweh" would've been a demon, and the story of the Old Testament would have been completely different
