Hi your valve looks very much like an old Navy type full wave rectifier
I don't think so. You can see the lower end of the grid wires in the first photo. There are also other internal connections between the cathode and anode structures, and maybe a couple of beam forming plates - so my guess is a beam tetrode of some kind, but my knowledge runs out at that point.
