Will this kinda adc operation make interrupt any better than normal conversions without interrupts
As with any interrupt the AVR is free to do other things, it is not busy waiting for the conversion to complete (ADC is rather slow compared to, e.g., an AVR at 16Mhz). Now, if there is nothing else to do then you might as well busy wait.

Yes, it will be ultra reliable  , seriously, no one but you can know that. If you follow the general advice to keep interrupt handlers short and fast there is nothing preventing it from beeing reliable.
