Can people be kosher?
No, I'm not inquiring about cannibalism. I'm wondering if there's a term for people who fulfill the requirements of Jewishness.
This is in contrast to Jews who don't keep dietary laws, etc. etc.

As you answered yourself -- people are not kosher.
> is there "a term for people who fulfill the requirements of Jewishness"
Jews are a tribal ethnic group.
Jews discuss ourselves with relation to religion on a continuum from
"observant" to "non observant"
Jews who have no connection to Jewish society are "unaffiliated"
Jews who have fallen for the anti-Jewish worldview are "self-hating Jews"
Non-Jews who follow Jewish teachings have started to call themselves "Noahides" or "children of Noah"
(this is a reference ot the Jewish belief that anyone can be righteous if they follow "the seven laws of Noah" - an outline of basic human morality)
Does that cover what you were looking for?

You can imagine to be kosher but be careful that you do not run over any gods in that imagination of yours!
