Is it possible to learn how to create a successful company or is it all a combination of genetics + right circumstances + luck?
I'd say it depends on your product and methods more than luck and circumstance

More like having a good idea+having money+knowing how to make more money of it
luck is a huge factor. you generally don't end up with billions of dollars purely on how good your idea is or how hard you work. that's just not how shit works.
It's "luck" in being first, luck in getting good employees that won's sell you out, luck in having good ideas, luck in having some retard big company like Microsoft buy you out so you have cash for your REALLY good idea

Lazy people can not recognize hard work or good ideas. Neither can they shut up about things they do not understand, which is why we constantly hear that successful people are solely lucky.

being handsome is also a major advantage
literally all you need to start a successful company is stamina, willpower, competitiveness, luck, and intensely hard work
Musk created a failure company, but managed to get bailed out by PayPal.
His new companies are quite impressive however. Telsa is without a doubt a major success.

Yes. It's possible.
The solution is to study the behavior of people who have created a successful company and then emulate their behavior.
Making a successful business is 100% luck.
Weather you succeed or fail is all luck. However being good or smart in business will allow you to recover from failure quicker and you'll be able to try your luck again. The better you are the more chances you'll have.
When it comes to anything economics related it's,
1.Luck
2.Timing
3.Connections
Genetics can only effect connections and even then luck is involved in that too.

So emulating how Rockefeller behaved is the key to becoming as rich he was? Like the fact he was around the time when the oil industry was getting off the ground has nothing to do with it?
Hmmmm something wrong there...
