I think it would be interesting for the gameplay, like if you could play as a dwemer or something. It would also be interesting to war against them as a dunmer, since there has been a lot of conflict between the two.

However, I think it would be a bit contradictory with the lore. I'm not going to delve into the world of dwemer disappearance theories, because there are so many we're virtually jumping at shadows, but a lot of the lore revolves around the disappearance of the dwemer. That is a very big question, and if they return, I'm afraid so many questions will be answered that players start to lose interest in the game. Sure, they can ask a lot of new questions, but, in the end, it might just not balance out these answers.

TL: DR: It would be interesting for them to return gameplay-wise, but it's highly unlikely Bethesda would do this as it might possibly cause the series to collapse.
