 It will , use if condition to hide or show the child interface . But keep in mind he/she needs to access parent interface(Parent record view where you calling this interface) in the first place. 
 if(Condition to check eligible, child interface, error interface)

You can simply create a rule input in the interface with the record type. And in the view you can pass the rv!record inside your interface rule. docs.appian.com/.../record-view.html

your if() condition is relied on a local variable which is not defined above. You can use a rule input or define the local variable above the if() 
 a!localVariables(
 local!booleanValue: true,
 local!number: 12,
 local!text: "practice",
 if(
 local!booleanValue,
 a!formLayout(
 label: "Form Practice",
 contents: {
 a!boxLayout(label: "Test Box", style: "SUCCESS")
 },
 buttons: a!buttonLayout(
 primaryButtons: {
 a!buttonWidget(
 label: "Submit",
 submit: true,
 style: "SOLID",
 loadingIndicator: true
 )
 },
 secondaryButtons: {
 a!buttonWidget(
 label: "Cancel",
 value: true,
 saveInto: {},
 submit: true,
 style: "OUTLINE",
 validate: false
 )
 }
 )
 ),
 rule!S_errorCard()
 )
)

Sure, you can use the below 
 a!localVariables(
 local!booleanValue:true,
 if(
 local!booleanValue,
 a!localVariables(),
 rule!S_errorCard()
 )
)

You can apply visibility conditions within the each view, on the top of your code. You can wrap with a simple if() and the error message in the else condition. 
 if(
 a!isUserMemberOfGroup("User"),
 {"Your existing code"},
 {"Your error Message"}
)

Konduru Chaitanya · Answer

I guess you should not complicate and simple If() or a visibility condition(Calling a expression which will determine the visibility) within the views should be incorporated.
