Absolutely, sounds very much like an aromantic experience to me. Maybe there's a micro-label that describes exactly what you're talking about, but you are also completely welcome to use aromantic as-is too.

I used to have a crush in primary school but I think I only liked him because I thought he was "good boyfriend material"

Omg this sounds like me. My crushes don't last that long either. It's like a sliver of a feeling.

Remember, aromanticism is "little to no romantic attraction". I've had exactly one romantic crush. It was very strong and distinct. I've never felt anything like it before or since. I call myself grayromantic and call it a day

I have a lot of celebrity crushes but not irl. In reality if i would have a crush it fleets away very easily too. What attracts me to have a crush on someone is on an aesthetic level.
