Honestly, I don't think Selena Gomez is too old for Disney Channel. She already has a fan following from Wizards+her music, and there's been adults playing teenagers on Disney before. It's really up to Disney if they think she'll fit the role, and then up to Selena if she wants to do it/if it fits into her schedule.

As for Melody appearing in the Descendants-verse... I don't think she will be. That would make the Little Mermaid sequel somewhat canon just with her existence, and then where would it end with the other sequels Disney has ignored? It would just be too complicated for the fans to keep everything straight. But that doesn't mean Ariel won't have a kid! It just probably wouldn't be Melody.

I'm really looking forward to seeing if Arabella will make an appearance, because remember she's still one of Ariel's Descendants! Just because they're not mother-daughter doesn't mean they're not close. (This also means Selena has another chance at being in Descendants 3 as Arabella!)
