Can anyone search the 1841 and/or 1851 census of Cupar Fife
Yes - You can!

https://freecen1.freecen.org.uk/cgi/search.pl has a full transcription of the surviving 1841 and 1851 census returns of Fife.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
