Main quest is level gated as far as I remember. Every next steps appears every 5 levels or so. So technically you literally can't use main quest to level to 50.

I'm not seeing that. I ran a couple newbies through starting the MQ today. After the first quest, I sent them from the starter island to the second level area (Auridon for one, Stonefalls for the other one), and The Harborage started immediately as they arrived. After finishing that, I moved them back to Vvardenfell, and Daughter of Giants started immediately after wayshrining. Needless to say, there were not 5 levels in between there.

Nope.If you were to only do the main quest and nothing else, without any xp boost, would it be enough to reach lvl 50?

Not even close.
If you do all the regional quests, all the mages and fighters guild and the mainquest... plus dolmen and maybe the odd world boss... you should hit 50 just around the final fight or so.
That was the original intention after all...
(Of course, originally the m ain quest always came up in level increments too... at level 5 you got the prophets memorties, at 10 you freed lyris, at 15 you hunted spies, at 20 you freed a tharn, at 25 you hunted for info in a dwelve, at 30 you freed sai, at 35 you visited the Abby, at 40 you went treasure hunting, at 45 you had a party and at 50 plus coldharbour completion... kicked Molag in the Bal.)
Do more dolmen and other stuff, and you might get there halfway through coldharbour. ESO+ gets you there a bit faster too, as does using double XP times - some of my recent alts hit 50 in the fourth alliance region... Grind a lot, use XP scrolls... well, as long as your brain can take the boredom, you can get to 50 anywhere.

I've meant it as in the quest are unlocked at levels 10, 15, 20 and so on. Not that you have to wait 5 levels before getting the next quest.

Not any longer, now the prophet pop up then you exit.Main quest is level gated as far as I remember. Every next steps appears every 5 levels or so. So technically you literally can't use main quest to level to 50.
