I was wondering If I am a good candidate for braces with a broken tooth? (Photo)

Yes...before we do braces on anyone, we want to be sure teeth are healthy and in good shape. In your particular case the diagonal fracture would make it difficult to place the brace on the right spot on the tooth. So getting it fixed first would be helpful. I suggest doing it with composite bonding. Even if you consider it temporary. You can always do a crown once the braces are removed.
