Anyone who thinks Christ will be performing funeral services for 1,000 years after His Second Coming would be those spoken of in your scripture.
That would also include those who reject the one people of God found in John 10:16. Various forms of Dual Covenant Theology are the greatest perversion of scripture ever considered.
Millennium Questions:

Based on the following scripture, will immortals and mortals both live on the earth for 1,000 years after the Second Coming of Christ?

you ask a lot of questions in making your case and I do not have the time to address them all. One point you asked how many mortals would be left and your implication is none. “And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened. You note Can the following questions be examined without ridicule, and condemnation, based on the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34,. Look at Jer 30 and 31 together and throw out the chapter breaks. We see in Chapter 30 the day of Jacobs trouble is a day like no other and that Jacob will be saved out of it. Chapter 31 talks about in that day... What day? the day of Jacobs trouble the new covenant is introduced. Now when we read Jer 31 31-34 the context of this is much broader than the 3 verses talking about the covenant. This ties in to the day of Jacobs trouble and can be proven to do so.
Jesus wept for Jerusalem knowing the destruction was coming because they did not know the day of their visitation. He predicted the temple destroyed as well. The establishment of the new covenant which Jesus clearly did bring in meant the destruction of the Jewish state and the scattering of Israel into all the nations. Now lets look at the context in Jer 30-31. The verses that immediately follow the promised new covenant, God declares that Israel will not cease to be a nation in God's eyes. God doubles down and says He will not cast off the seed of Israel for all they have done. God is anticipating the over 1800 year diaspora in the verses immediately following the promised new covenant. Chapter 31 ends with a short glimpse into the day of Jacobs trouble. It shows 38 “Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, that the city shall be built for the LORD from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate. 39 The surveyor’s line shall again extend straight forward over the hill Gareb; then it shall turn toward Goath. 40 And the whole valley of the dead bodies and of the ashes, and all the fields as far as the Brook Kidron, to the corner of the Horse Gate toward the east,
shall be holy to the LORD. It shall not be plucked up or thrown down anymore forever.”
Now here we see Jerusalem needing to be rebuilt at a time when dead bodies fill the valley and from that time it will be rebuilt and holy and never thrown down anymore forever. This is what happens at the day of Jacobs trouble and it is seen coming at the end of the tribulation. We see the angels declare the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of the LORD and His Christ and He shall reign forever. This is seen in Zech 14 when the LORD comes with His saints. The Mt of Olives splits in two and new rivers and valley s are formed. The nations which are left must now come to Jerusalem to keep the feast of tabernacles and worship the king or they get no rain. The LORD is king in that day over all. The kingdom is not temporary as at the end of the 1000 years the kingdom moves locations and the king is still reigning.
This same story is told in Dan 7,8 as well as Dan 2. There are no dual covenants fro salvation as the 1st assumption of the posters arguments makes. The covenant with Abraham for the land was not annulled by Jer 31. In Luke 1 we see the prophecy of Jesus ministry is to take the throne of David and here is Zacharias,
Zacharias’ Prophecy
67 Now his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying:
68 “Blessed
is the Lord God of Israel,
For He has visited and redeemed His people,
69 And has raised up a horn of salvation for us
In the house of His servant David,
70 As He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets,
Who
have been since the world began,
71 That we should be saved from our enemies
And from the hand of all who hate us,
72 To perform the mercy
promised to our fathers
And to remember His holy covenant,
73 The oath which He swore to our father Abraham:
74 To grant us that we,
Being delivered from the hand of our enemies,
Might serve Him without fear,
75 In holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our life.
The end of the tribulation brings national Israel into the new covenant and it is here the before and after picture is established. The deliverance promised and the spiritual change in Israel is seen in Zech 14 exactly as promised. The day of Jacob's trouble is future.
One of the greatest hangups is that sacrifices are indeed going to be taking place in the millennium. I can't answer exactly why but we can ask Jesus in that day. Those brought back from the nations to the mountains of Israel which have long been desolate God promises to give them a new heart, and to remove the reproach of the nations and that no one will bereave Israel or Israel bereave them anymore.
