Nobody would have been in line automatically.
Norway had chosen Haakon VII and his descendants.
Knud or anyone else in the agnatic pool of Haakon VII, would just have been a kinsman, perhaps attractive to be chosen, but nothing automatic.
The proposal by the king, and the stortinget procedure, would have been used/ needed.
Norway would not have chosen a candidate who was close to succeed to another throne.

Btw, Knud was never 'Crown Prince' of Denmark. He was called 'Hereditary Prince' for some time.
